I have been directed to this website several times since I have started
using Windows Mail. But one has to be an expert in computers to use the
advice under the heading "Windows Mail". I have been using computers since
1990, and I find the sort of instructions I see on this site to be
unfathomable. How do you export Registry keys for heaven's sake? and to
which place do you export them?

I have Outlook 2003 installed and I found a way to back up my Windows Mail
folders and messages to an external hard drive by exporting them first to
Windows Mail and then dropping and dragging the Outlook Folder containing
the .pst file to the external drive. Naturally the actual steps are a bit
more complex than that, but you get the idea. You would import the messages
etc by running the play in reverse order.
 
For a tutorial on how to do that, simply put "export registry keys"
into the Google search engine.

The backup method you used won't save account data, rules, or
program settings.

How come you reply to a different thread, ("where is the file that remembers
your winmail settings/preferences"). and send to this one?

Not sure that you should go into the Registry?
