Microsoft Just Can’t Get It Right

Filed under: Internet,Microsoft,Technology — aapriori @ 7:40 pm

I don’t understand how after decades Microsoft can’t even get one of their longest standing products, Outlook Express, to function consistently. Once again a seemingly simple operation, like starting a program, has failed.

A friend of mine had a computer problem today and as I’m his good friend I needed to solve it. He couldn’t use his email. The only thing you could get from his Outlook Express is a message saying “Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to open the Outlook Express message store. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full”. I’ve searched the internet on Outlook Express and found an interesting Outlook Express repair utility and I’m sharing the link with you. It’s repair option solved his problem automatically.

Funny, I never have to deal with problems like this on my Mac. But I realize most people are still stuck in the MS quagmire so I offer help where I can find it.
