My computer crashed & I had to repair the system. The User that I entered is
"xxxxxx". When I restored my backup files to their original location my mail
box, which I had relocated from its default location to "Documents",
reinstalled to the user name of my original installation "xxx". I then
started Windows Mail and selected the mail box to that location. However when
I try to restart Windows Mail I get the following "Windows Mail could not be
started. The application was unable to openthe Windows Mail message store.
Your Windows Mailmailbox data is currently being used by another
program...............(0x800C0155)"
When I click OK I get a window showing "Windows Mail could not be started
because MSOE.DLL could not be initialized. Is there a solution other than
repairing Vista again?
 
Thanks Gary, I have moved the WM folder as you suggested, but WM will not
start. I get the same WinMail.exe window telling me WM could not be started!
 
I am a new user of Windows.vista.mail All I get when I try to use this
system is ERRO messages. Please help

You really should start your own thread, instead of hijacking this one.

When you get an error message, right-click on it, select Copy, then paste it
into a reply.
Also tell us who provides your email account.
 
If that did not work, then about the only suggestion remaining is to upgrade
to Windows Live Mail. It will copy and recompile all your WM stuff, so hopefully
whatever is bothering WM won't survive the move to Windows Live Mail.
