can someone please help me out? i have around 100 emails in my deleted items
folder. it comes up with an unknown error has occured message. it also wont
even display the email itself. in the window where it would have the email it
says windows encountered an error, check for low memory or disk space. ive
checked both and of course they are fine. i tried erasing them one by one
each time i opened windows mail (i saw this advice in a thread here in
Microsoft Communities) but that didnt work either. this was supposed to erase
a few each time i re-opened the program. if anyone knows anything and could
help me out I would appreciate it.

Download and install this fix, with Windows Mail not running:

Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works in
other folders. If you don't know whether to use the 32-bit version or
the 64-bit version, try the 32-bit version first. Certain common
antivirus programs, such as most of those from Norton or McAfee,
or a recent one from Trend, tend to cause such problems, although
seldom immediately, so if you have such a program, remember
where to find the fix - you are likely to need it again.
