My IE7 was corrupted and getting the "cannot find (null)" error. I
uninstalled and downloaded/installed again. When I restarted the computer
there was a new outlook exp. icon which when I clicked on it, would only open
internet properties.
I found a thread on how to restore the icon (msimn.exe) , but when I use the
restored icon I get this error:
"Outlook Express cannot be started. The application was unable to create the
font cash object (0x8007000E, 127)"
Can anyone help me find the original program link, or were the files lost
with the IE install?
Thanks...gary

I would ask an Outlook Express newsgroup.
 
Re: Lost outlook express

Well, I had enough sense to use system restore and got my email back with
everything intact. Obviously the original files are around somewhere or they
would be gone when I restored, I just cannot get to them.

Again I got the (null) error, so I exported and saved everything in OE I
cared about.

I uninstalled IE7, reinstalled from Microsoft Update. After install, again
my email program disappeared. My original icon is there this time, but again
when I click on it, I get the internet properties window.
I do not have the "Outlook Express cannot be started, application was unable
to create the font cashe object (0x8007000E, 127)" error message because I
did not try to restore the shortcut (msimn.exe). This time the icon was the
same as my old one. but still, I have no files or application with my old
icon. Apparrently the missing icon had nothing to do with my problem,
I can use system restore again and get OE back. But if I do, I am sure I
will get the (null) error along with. Then the IE7 uninstall reinstall will
kill it again.
I recently had a problem with a very nasty worm. I cleaned the worm after
weeks of work and at that time the email was fine. I reinstalled my
registered Pro version of Windows XP after cleaning and some little crap I
was having problems with went away. I am still testing clean, but this could
though have something to do with the problem.
I really hate to format after working for weeks removing the worm and
finally getting everything working again
Is it possible to download IE6 somewhere and try that?

Re: Lost outlook express

I just checked the properties of the OE icon left on my desktop and the
shortcut key has no target in it.
Can anyone give me the proper target for the OE icon?
Thanks...gary

Re: Lost outlook express

Here is a little hint: An Outlook Express newsgroup is a good place for this
question. If it is a big challenge for you to locate such a group, how about
this one:
News://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
News://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress

Re: Lost outlook express

Well, I had a link to two different shortcuts on my desktop, one was the
thread here and one in Outlook Express newsgroups.
I posted mistakenly here.
Sorry to waste your time with my "challenge".

*** Yes, we know, three times in a row.

*** Not that much of a challenged - try "C:\Program Files\Outlook
