My profile on Windows 7 crashed and I created a new profile. I was using Windows Live Mail and had to reinstall the same on the new profile. I copied the storage folder (alongwith subfolders) from the old location C:\Users\<login name>AppData\Local\Microsoft\
and put it under the same path in the new login name but it does not shw up once I open Windows Live Mail.
Say I have a storage folder marked Dad, where I store all the emails my father has sent me. Later I go there to pull up an old email where he sent me an attached picture. Every email I stored there in this folder is the same. All the other information
is gone. All my storage folders are the same. They have many stored folders, but they are all the same within the folder? How do I fix this? No Error messages. Windows 7 64 bit. Explorer - Windows Live Mail. Yes it worked prior. Fairly new computer
I built and the only changes made were the Windows Updates that Microsoft sent me.
I am trying to transfer emails in personal Storage Folder from Windows Live Mail on my Windows7 laptop to my new Windows laptop.
Firstly, exporting all folders is only attempting to export the specific folder and not sub folders beneath e.g. i have a Finance folder that has a sub folder called Banks but selecting the Finance folder does not pick up the Banks folder or anything in it
So I tried picking each folder individually (very long-winded), exporting this and then imported into my Windows 8 machine. On viewing the folders after import, only one email in each folder had been imported.
Currently, this seems fairly hopeless as I have years of emails to transfer.
Is there a tool that will work?
Please help anyone!

By mistake, I have 2 email storage folders I need to merge. (I don't use the default email storage folder.) One is recent emails, the other is older ones. Both have the emails divided among the same few dozen folders within the overall storage folder.
How can I merge the 2 storage folders with the least likelihood of badly scrambling the folders within them?
These are communications, in and out, with clients. I would prefer to wrap them up into one 'openable' folder in, say, My Documents, where I can open them up occasionally. I can't find a way to do this.
This morning my Live Mail Quick View - All Inbox includes numerous messages from my storage folders. If I move the message back to the storage folder and then delete it in the All Inbox view it gets deleted in both places. Anyone have any suggestions
on how to restore the integrity of my mail folders? Up until now Live Mail has worked flawlessly for me for years.
I am running Windows 7 - 64-bit.
Thanks

I inadvertently deleted them while trying to remove a file I didn't recognise. I got them back for short time using "Go to" but they disappeared again. I went to C:\Users\user name etc. searched and found the folder and sub-folders but they were all
empty. Does this mean that I have lose these imortant stored files forever? I really need some that are very important and I am devastated.
On my new computer, I'm trying to import dbx files from my old computer's Outlook Express. I am trying to do this one folder at a time in order to keep things in some sort of order. In its Storage folder, WLM sets up an "imported folder" each time I do
an import, but it's empty and the imported emails are nowhere to be found. I can search "all mail" and find a huge unsorted mass of everything I've imported, but none of it appears in a folder anywhere in the navigation bar on the left side. Any insights?
I'm running WLM under Windows 7 64-bit. I use custom storage folders with a primary header folder then dated sub folders. Today I transferred highlighted emails from my input folder to one of the dated sub folders. I found that all the transferred messages
were exactly the same. There was also an identical message in the Primary header folder but when I deleted it all the messages in the sub folders, when I tried to open them, resulted in a 'Cannot be Found' message. I've tried the WLM repair function via the
Control Panel but the result is still the same. I've not has this problem when I transfer single emails from the input folder to Storage but only when I select a group of emails & try to transfer them to a Storage folder.
