I don't know how this happened. The version of XP on the laptop is a corporate version and I have XP Pro that I got for another computer but I don't know how to extract just OE without having to completely re-install Windows all over again (the way you can install individual programs in Office). Is there a way to install just OE? Thanks in advance, Wendy . .>>> Wendy I just went through something similar last night. I did a SEARCH for Outlook Express to determine that it was on my system. Then, I went into START> Set Program Access and Defaults and activated it.
