email location
I cannot locate "email.exe", if it exists. I have seen message boards that
claim it is in Program files in Windows Vista Home Premum(service pak2) but if I find email, it is not "exe" . What program file starts up Windows Mail? I really just want to place a shortcut on the desktop. Thanks..BW -- Bill Walsh-65 Carriage Drive-Milford, CT-06460-Tele#203-283-7740 |

So you will have to change your view option to "Show hidden files". I am not certain because I no longer have an installed copy of Windows Vist; but I am reasonably certain the executable was actually named, 'wmail.exe'. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |

Thanks very much, when I finally found how to check "show hidden files", the
Winows Mail executable file showed up in C-Program Files. Shortcut is now on my desktop...BW -- Bill Walsh-65 Carriage Drive-Milford, CT-06460-Tele#203-283-7740 "N. Miller" wrote in message ...
