If you don't know whether to use the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version, try the 32-bit version first. Certain common antivirus programs, such as most of those from Norton or McAfee, or a recent one from Trend, tend to cause such problems, although seldom immediately, so if you have such a program, remember where to find the fix - you are likely to need it again. You should then be able to delete the messages it is complaining about. |

I just fixed the same problem. Shawn gave me the solution.

Thanks Filip Hi Filip, This will help show you how to fix the stuck undeletable email message problem. Installing the KB941090 update will just fix the problem for now. You must stop the cause to prevent it from happening again. Read the section titled "FIRST" in this tutorial about antivirus and anti-spyware/adware programs to help prevent this from happening again, then install the KB941090 Microsoft Update in the section titled "SECOND" to fix and be able to delete the stuck message from the problem folder.

You probably need the 32-bit version of the fix, then, but also try the
64-bit version just in case. The wrong one will just refuse to install. What if any antivirus programs do you have? Some of them cause such problems. Windows Mail doesn't use .dbx files. It stores mail in .eml files, but also uses a few more extensions for such things as the index files. "DianeG" wrote in message ... I had the same thing. Said the download was not for my machine .
