- Where can I find/reinstall Outlook Express?
OE is spontaneously crashing on me. Just forced shutdowns constantly when
composing msgs like this one. I'm using OE 6.00 2800 1106 on WinXP SP1 I was wondering if I could re-install it with the latest version, and if so, how? |

Holy crap is that complicated... it involves touching the registry, even.
Can't I just uninstall and re-install OE the same way I would any other non-microsoft program?

Greetings --
No. Outlook Express has been "built" into WinXP, so it cannot be removed like 3rd party applications.

Look at this link for one solution to the crashing problem if you've
installed the 810847 update (which is the cause of the crash): http://radio.weblogs.com/0001229 -- Jim Pickering MVP-Outlook Express "Bern Harrison" wrote in message Holy crap is that complicated... it involves touching the registry, even.

Still, you can re-install programs like this sometimes, by applying certain service packs. I don't believe OE has anything like this yet, though. One idea, install every patch available, and update to 128 bit security if it is only 40 bit. The key is that the more DLLs you replace, the more likely an issue like this will get fixes, assuming ( a rather large assumption I'll admit ) that somewhere a DLL got messed up in some way. |

Messed up dll's is not a rather large assumption. You can download them =
that way from the MS site. --=20 George (Bindar Dundat) Computers don't prevent mistakes, they just make them faster.

Windows Installer is alleged to eliminate DLL problems (other than bugs), by re-installing any DLL that a program needs if it is missing. So if one app over writes a DLL with their own, WI should replace the one you need when you use the original app. In practice, I don't think it is perfect. Thus, if something like OE or IE gets messed up, sometimes a re-install will fix it. Other times you have to upgrade. I had an issue with v4 or v5 where the edit controls on a form would not work, and fixed it by moving up a version. Nothing else would work. |
