Can someone help me here, I'm trying to find the default location for Outlook Express's emails. I changed mine to somewhere I could find them & back them up from. But since installing Outlook & ActiveSync it keeps crashing I think due the files not being in their default location.


I just need the path & I'll put them back & try that. Google & Microsoft don't seem to tell you where it is just where else you can put it aaarrrgghh

C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{E3393C71-C65D-49E0-993B-DA2AD269FABD}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

The bit in between { } will be different per user I would think as it
