I've got several eml-files which I saved over the years with Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail.
I've now switched to using Outlook. When I double click these saved messages, they open with Windows 10 Mail instead.
How can I open these messages with Outlook instead?
I used your previous tip to get rid of the Save/Open prompt when double clicking an attachment. Now I want to undo that for several file types.
How can I undo that?
While more and more people are starting to use the Tab button to jump to the next field (to fill out an Outlook appointment for example) instead of using the mouse, I often find people struggling when they reach a date field.
They either look at a physical calendar first to determine the future date (when the date math gets hard) and then type the date or they still grab to a mouse.
How can you do this faster and still without a mouse?
We're using a voicemail system that sends our voicemail messages as emails with VoiceMessage.wav attachments. As of lately I can no longer open these voicemail messages anymore and get the following error when attempting to open it;
"Can't create file: VoiceMessage.wav. Right-click on the folder you want to create the file in, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check your permissions for the folder."
How can I listen to my voicemail messages again?
I've got several POP3 accounts configured in Outlook. One account I only use for sending (someone else monitors the incoming messages and forwards it to the correct person and we reply with the general company account).
How can I tell Outlook not to include this account when receiving?
I want to start off with a new empty pst-file (my current one is getting too big to manage) but I'd like to keep the folder structure for my new pst-file.
Is there any way I can recreate that automatically?
To keep my work and private e-mail completely separate, I've added an additional mail profile to Outlook. I've named this new mail profile after my company. The original mail profile is called Outlook.
Is there any way I could rename this mail profile to something more indicative like "private emails"?
Upon starting Outlook or sending an email, I get the following error;
"The add in C:\WINDOWS\system32\fxsext32.dll could not be installed or loaded."
I've checked, and the file indeed isn't there. I did a repair on Office and it still does this.
How can I get fix this error?
When I try to delete a folder or move a folder, I get:
"Cannot Move The Items. The Folder is Full."
If I try to rename a folder, I get:
"Cannot rename '<new folder name>'. The Folder is Full".
I get this even with folders that have nothing in them.
Permanently deleting (SHIFT+DELETE) doesn't work either and results in the error:
"The message interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook."
How can I get Outlook back to work again?
I've dismissed several appointments but they keep coming back up in the Reminders Window.
Aside from deleting the appointment items (which I do not want to do), how can I dismiss these items permanently?
