Unable To Open Your Default Email Folders
Jul 20, 2005
As an fyi ... I'm on Windows XP and email through MS Office Outlook.My computer was working fine until we suffered 2 power surges within minutes of each other today. The tv, stereo, phone & fax are fine. My computer powers on and the first error message appears: winlogon.exe - unable to locate component. This application has failed to start because sfc_os.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. Next, I try to go into 1 of 3 email accounts. First error message here:
Unable to open your default email folders.

I love the Windows Explorer Document Tree View and I am so lazy that it bothers me to switch to the view each time I open a new window. Is there a way to set the default view to open folders with the document tree showing?I have tried switching it to the classic view, but that doesn't have the versatility of the full document tree. And, as another article has suggested, I added /e to my My Documents shortcut target, but that didn't help either.

I have a problem with setting OE6 as my default email program in IE after I installed Office 97. Since I really wanted to use OE6, I uninstalled Outlook. Now my OE6 works okay with my dial-up internet access. No problems with sending and receiving emails, but I cannot set it to be the default email handler using the Tool->Options popup window. And I also found that in IE, Tools-> Internet Options popup -> Programs tab, there is no choices for the Email field. This problem has caused me to be unable to click on email addresses of people on the webpages and other problems with 3rd party softwares.

I use Outlook Express for e mail. Every now & then when I check e mail I get a message telling me that Outlook Express is not my e mail default, and do I want to make it my default. I check the box to do that, and its ok for awhile, maybe 2 weeks, then it does it again. Apparently something in the system keeps switching it. This has been happening intermittently since I bought my present computer about a year ago.

The wife was reading her email when a window came up asking if she wanted to Compress the email folders to save space on the drive. She clicked yes, and now I have no past email other than todays. Any way to uncompress the folders and reinstate my email? The storage location is NOT on C drive, but on L drive which is a common drive for multiple O/S booting. The folders still show to be in the 795MB total, but now only contain a few messages. I do not include L drive in system restore for the simple reason W2000 doesn't have system restore, which is one of my operating systems. Dummy here didn't think to run a Acronis True Image backup of "L"!

I have a Compaq laptop on XP that is up to date. Norton runs clean. I believe my modem is going bad because whenever I�m on the internet and minimize IE the computer locks up. In about five minutes it starts running and all the things I clicked on while it was locked up appear, as if they were all running in the background. The pc works fine if I�m not using the modem. I�m on vacation and have other modems at home. Several times I held the power button down when it was hung up. One of those times I lost my profile so that when it starts up it can�t find local settings and it has to build a temp profile. I built another profile but all of my old Outlook folders are missing. I�ve done multiple searches for *.pst but can�t find them, even looking in hidden files. I�ve found an old pst file that I made as a backup last year but when I try to load it into my new profile/ user it says I don�t have permission to access these files. The new user I built is set as administrator. I tried moving a copy from the cd to my user but then it asked for a password which I never set. Here are my questions,
1)Is there any way to find the folders in my old Outlook?
2)Is there a way to change the permission on the old pst file on my backup cd? I tried finding it in the registry after I moved it to my user but was unable to?
3)Scanpst.exe needs a pst file to work on which I can�t find.
4)I�ve reloaded the driver for the modem but that didn�t help. Any thoughts?
5)When you archive the mail where is it kept? I did this last week.

Anyone know how to set a default for viewing files and folders . . . , i.e., I'd like to set as a default, the only useful file/folder view XP offers, which is "details", such that everytime I open any file/folder from any storage,I see the file/folder details without having to take the extra 10 minutes to adjust it by hand.

I'm having trouble with the 'Show hidden files and folders' setting in the folder options. No matter how many times I try to set the computer to display hidden files and folders, the computer completely ignores it and resets it to 'Do not show hidden files and folders'. The account I am using while trying to change the setting is a admin account though not the default admin account. I have tried to change the setting in the default admin account and the same thing happens. I'm running XP Pro with SP2. As far as I can tell this problem started after I uninstalled a browser hijack program that got installed without my consent though I am not positive that this problem did not start before the browser hijacker problem occurred. I'm assuming the registry is corrupted and short of reinstalling windows I don't know how to fix the problem.

When I receive an email in Outlook and it has jpeg's attached, I have to answer a warning msg each time I open the pic to view it.On my spouse's system (same as mine), she just clicks on it and it opens with no warning.How can I surpress the warning that asks "do you want to open this file?"It says the file type is "unknown" and that the publisher is "unknown".This is not a critical complaint, but I would like to find out the answer.

I have XP and Use Outlook Express. I cannot open any links I am sent in emails. I get a blank screen when I try. I saw a similar question in this forum from tony 007 and went to the link he received as an answer from Tufnuf. I ran all the .dll suggestions and I still have the problem.

Windows XP totally up to date. I think. When I open Outlook Express {email} I keep getting messages that "Outlook Express has encountered a problem and needs to close".....and it does close when I click on send error report. At times when it does work for awhile, when I click to delete a email, that email won't show as deleted from inbox, but when I then go to the deleted folder it shows up there....checking back at the inbox the email is now gone from the inbox.

I recently installed Nero software for burning DVD's and aparently I gave the software permission to open all icons under Nero instead of where they opened from before. When I go to my icon folder to choose an icon, instead of seeing all of the icons I have placed, there, all I see is about 100 Nero icons.Could uninstall Nero and I suppose that would correct the problem.
