I have Office 2007 and Windows Vista Premium. When replying to an email in
Outlook, I get an error message saying "The Add-In "Fax Extension"
(C:\Windows\System32\fxsext32dll) cannot be loaded and has been disabled by
Outlook. Please contact the Add-In manufacturer for an update. If no
uopdate is available, please uninstall the Add-In."
I do not need a FAX program. Can you tell me how to uninstall the Add-In?
Thanks,

Did you install it in the first place? Does it appear in the Trust Center?
Was this a clean install of Vista? Sounds to me like you tried to do an
upgrade installation.

Russ,
You are right. The installation of both Windows Vista and Office were
upgrades.
Does that help?

It explains why you have the problem. Upgrade installations are always
problematic.
Close Outlook.
Find and rename extend.dat.

I closed Outlook. My search for "extend.dat" and for "Extend.dat" resulted
in "no files found".

Enable viewing hidden files and folders.

Viewing hidden files is enabled. Searching finds no match for "extend.dat"
or for "Extend.dat".

Keep trying. It's there. You most likely need to get up to speed on
searching in Vista.

You were right again! Its bad when you don't know what you don't know.
I found the file, renamed it and the error message is gone. Thank you very
much.

Vista takes some getting used to. Some of the old reflexes from XP just
don't work anymore.
