Re: Recover deleted subfolder in Outlook express

Then we can forget that you even have WLM installed for this discussion? If
it is an OE folder and you do not have a dbx or bak file, then your only
hope is DBXpress.

DBXpress:

You may need to run it in the Extract From Disk Mode if its normal recovery
mode fails to find the lost messages.
