    Easy to follow instructs but I unfortunately hit a problem and wonder if you could suggest anything! The store folder states the path to application data, identities etc but the folder is empty. I searched for dbx files and found them in ‘my documents’ dating 2008! If the store folder path is correct why are the emails not being backed up in correct place and how do I back up current emails? Thanks!

    Very rarely can you open any backup from any program…and email is no different. Instead you have to use the restore or import function to utilize your backup. In the case of both Outlook (.pst) and Outlook Express (.dbx), you need to use the import function found in the File menu
