TRanserfering from Vista Outlook Express to Win8 Windows Live Mail
From: "The Doctor"
I was able to back up a Vista Box e-mail and contacts. It now must be restored in Windows 8.1 Windows Live mail. How can you import? There is no Vista OE. It is Winmail which is the predessor to Windows Live Mail. Unfortunately there is no simple way. The only option is if there is a 3rd party utility ( which I don't know if one actually exists ) or to use Windows Easy Transfer Vista to a Win7 PC. Then when that is done use Windows Easy Transfer from Windows 7 to Windows 8. I do not think there is a path use Windows easy Transfer from XP or Vista to Windolws 8. Assuming the Profile is TherDoctor; c:\users\thedoctor You may try a manual process which may or may not work. It would mean creating two Local Accounts on Win8 with Admin Priveledges. One 'TheDoctor' and the other "Admin". Once you ceate 'TheDoctor' Profile, login as 'TheDoctor'. It will do its setup. The logoff as 'TheDoctor' and login as Admin. Then reboot. Make sure you logion as Admin and NOT 'TheDoctor'. Then copy the entire subdirectory tree "c:\users\thedoctor" from the Vista PC to the Win8 PC "c:\users\thedoctor" and over write all. Then try to logon as 'TheDoctor'. There are a loyt of chancers in Win8 vs. Vista so somethings will be inherited and other things will be new based upon Win8 changes. -- Dave Multi-AV Scanning Tool - http://multi-av.thespykiller.co.uk http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |
