We have moved email messages from Outlook Express V.6 on an XP system to a new machine with Vista using the Easy Transfer program. According to the report generated on the new machine, the transfer was successful and all the email messages show on the report. However, the old email files are not being recognized by the Vista equivalent of OE, Windows Mail. How can we get Windows Mail to link to the transferred email messages?

Have been using explorer to launch videos. This works fine for most purposes, however, On shutdown DEP comes online, and says It is shutting down Explorer. When I change setting to allow, or just have DEP stop explorer, the environment resets and I have to wait, then shut down windows a second time. I believe a good way to avoid this is to discontinue explorer launch of audio and video files and let the user manually launch the player they will use to play the files. The player associated or assigned to the file types can still be listed in a special control panel, but, again, the file would need to be played from the player instead of the explorer browser. …

I had a problem with some Adobe Photoshop documents that wouldn't open. What eventually made the problem go away was that I copied all the files in C:\Windows\Fonts to a temporary folder and then deleted them all from C:\Windows\Fonts. There were a few that the system would not allow to be deleted, but almost all went away, including Arial. I then copied all the font files back to C:\Windows\Fonts and my Photoshop file opened without giving me the error message as previously. Now I have a new situation that is a little annoying. Some of the dialog boxes in some programs display with a bolder, larger font than before. For example, in Adobe FrameMaker, in the Par…

I read the thread on this forum addressing this issue. It had no solutions. I have searched Technet and MS Knowledge Base and found nothing. I Googled the problem and found no more than what has been offered on this forum (i.e. nothing). Some users on our network (about 10) are experiencing this. They start the computer from power-off. Windows loads normally and the Windows Login screen is displayed. The User name and Password fields are unavailable (grayed out). Rebooting the computer will normally fix the problem. No other solutions as of yet. We are running Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 installed. All updates and security patches hav…

I am running a corporate install into program files and when the process completes the basic folder permissions are set to everyone full control and not inherited from the parent however when I click on the advanced tab, this dialog box is blank. Is this normal and does it affect the basic permissions set on that account? When should the users or groups populate the special permissions window? Thank you in advance. Stuck.

When I used to do a search, the particular name I was looking for would appear 'highlighted' on pages, which meant finding any references much easier. Since i have done a re-install that feature has disappeared. How can i bring back that highlighting please? thanks.
