Guy, we highly recommend that you visit our Guide for New Members. Cannot open mail in Outlook Express Discussion in 'Web & Email' started by toni1595, Apr 14, 2006. Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 Next > Advertisement toni1595 Thread Starter Joined: Aug 19, 2005 Messages: 28 Hello all. Recently I downloaded and installed the latest updates from Microsoft. And I was also having a problem with my AVG antivirus program so, I uninstalled it and did a reinstall by their recommendation, and that took care of the problem with that. But now I can't get any of my mail messages in Outlook Express to open. Whether they have been previously opened https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/269777 or not. I am running Windows XP and I could do a system restore but will it go back before the updates so I'll have to download them again? When I try to open the messages I get a error that says "there was an error opening this message". I've also seen one saying something about an address book error. And in fact when you click on the address book, it will say it can't be found. When I browsed your archive it https://forums.techguy.org/threads/cannot-open-mail-in-outlook-express.459082/ told of doing a search for the address book. When I do I find several files but, none of them show anything in them and it only creates a shortcut for them. Is it possible to use the WIndows XP disc to do a repair and get what I need to get over this problem? I'm a little hesitant to use the disc because I'm afraid I'll lose some files in the process. Does anyone have any ideas?? Thanx. P.S. I do have another mail program called Mozilla Thunderbird which seems unaffected by this problem. It is only with O.E. And I also have done a thorough virus scan and have checked my Zone Alarm for any restrictions and none are found. I'm sure its a corrupt file but, I don't know just how to go about fixing it. toni1595, Apr 14, 2006 #1 Sponsor toni1595 Thread Starter Joined: Aug 19, 2005 Messages: 28 Where I haven't had any replies on this thread, I thought I'd give some people a head's up in case it happens to anyone else. What it ended up being was a problem with one of Microsoft's security patches that I downloaded and installed on Friday 4/14. After a lot of struggling yesterday and visits to Microsoft's website (which I find very user unfriendly) I got to thinking about it this morning and figured I'd try removing the last bunch I put in and "viola", my Outlook Express works
