NoUserName Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 One of the most lovely things in windows vista is windows mail which is the new outlook express.I've just get the ultimate windows 7 and was surprised to find it without a default email client such as windows mail or outlook express at least.Does there is any way to use the windows mail from vista into or with windows 7?

ldb Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 You need to find the Windows live link in the start menu. Click on it and it will get you Windows Mail. If you upgraded from Vista using the upgrade method, all of your accounts and contacts should be restored. It does not look the same, but works OK.

wuhoatu Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 All you need is copy the only msoe.dll from Windows Mail of Vista to Win7 (replace). Or you can download it from the link bellowshttp://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jmmmqmaqxnmThis will:- Copy msoe.dll from Windows Mail of Vista into Win7- Add necessary registry so that you can set Windows Mail as default- Pin Windows Mail to Start Menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoUserName Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 Thanks for replyBut just to confirm that I am talking about Windows mail and not windows live mail.So replacing the mentioned file will solve the whole thing!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuhoatu Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) Thanks for replyBut just to confirm that I am talking about Windows mail and not windows live mail.So replacing the mentioned file will solve the whole thing!?Yes. It is Windows Mail. All you need is replacing file msoe.dll in Windows 7 with Windows Mail from Vista. Case you need set Windows Mail as default in Windows 7, you need further registry. You can download file from the link above and extract it with WinRar to see all content. Edited November 16, 2009 by wuhoatu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
