Hi Ron,
You'll have to rename these files back to .dbx, so the inbox.bak file will be renamed to inbox.dbx and so on. First of all, you'll have to save any new mail which has come in as the current inbox.dbx file has to be deleted or moved elsewhere so that you can restore the inbox.bak file.
If you've already moved them from the Recycle Bin then they should be back in the Outlook Express folder ready to be renamed. 

Here's the path to where the .dbx files are stored on your c: drive.
I'm presuming you have a personal folder called Ron.
Plus the folder with the numbers and characters may differ from my settings.

documents and settings/
ron/
local settings/
application data/
identities/
{9410E3CD-E811-43F0-87EE-E4016827E14B}/
microsoft/
outlook express/

I hope you manage to get it all sorted.

Cheers Tom.

Thanks Tom, yes the files and folders are in the recycle bin.  I am not sure
what to do next.  There is a restore button in properties but that isn't doing
anything.  What next please?

Ron

Hi Ron,

Look in the Recycle Bin for files like Inbox.bak as they normally end up
there if you've compressed them by mistake.
All your other mail folders will probably be there with the .bak
extension added to them.

Cheers Tom.

Hello Folks, most of my folders and e-mails have gone from my
computer.  Is there a way of retrieving them please?  I feel sure they
are around somewhere but I know not where.
Cheers
Ron
