Recently my computer was not working. Best Buy backuped
the entire content of the hard drive ino their system,
reformed my hard drive and installed a new operating
system (windows XP). Then they put back the entire
contents of my old hard drive from their system back into
a 'backup folder' in the refomated hard drive. They said
all mails which were were in 'outlook express' are in the
back up folder. I need the mails and address. I could not
find them. How can I find them?
 
Try looking in the backup folder along the following path
*\Doucuments and Settings\*\Application
Data\Microsoft\AddressBook and search for a file with the
extension *.wab. Double click on the file and when the
message appears asking to make the AddressBook your
default vCard viewer select No. Highlight and select all
the addresses you want to keep. Open your current address
book and paste them into it.
