Solve : Outlook Express folder settings changed at exiting?

Answer»

Hi there,

Not a major problem here, but for someone with borderline OCD, it's ridiculously frustrating. I just reformatted my laptop, and have reinstalled all my old PROGRAMS. Now, THOUGH, when USING Outlook Express, my mail folders and subfolders automatically collapse when I exit. I'm hoping someone will be ABLE to help. All I want to do--it seems so simple--is to keep the folders I've expanded in that state between exiting and re-starting (which happened, as I recall, automatically before the reformatting).

Feel a bit crazy, as there is nothing I can seem to find on the topic online, or in Outlook Express Help, or by  navigating every single tab in the Tools/Options menu.

Thanks in advance,
BDid it used to work the way you describe wanting it to? Out look Express is not the most customizable thing. Quote

Yup, it used to work exactly as I MENTION. I'd have a certain number of frequently-used folders in an expanded view, and some less-frequently accessed folders collapsed, and whenever I closed out of the program, the settings were saved and I could re-open with folders appearing as they were before exiting.

Thanks for the attention.
