| | Re: "Reclaim space on closing" Error Regardless of how I do it, it will not close. Not using the mouse, not using the keyboard. I sent a message to support and they asked me twice "What exactly do you mean by compacting the database?" I went through a step-by-step in my original message to them explaining exactly how it happens and they still have to ask me what I mean. LOL I have the strange feeling this is not going to turn out well. LOL But thanks for trying to help and I'll let you know what happens. -- İLarryEş "Joseph Meehan" <sligoNoSPAMjoe@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:eYo0luolIHA.5660@xxxxxx Quote: > That seems to be working for me. > > Thanks. > > "Robert Aldwinckle" <robald@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:e8G2HPalIHA.3512@xxxxxx Quote: >> "İLarryEş" <me@xxxxxx> wrote in message >> news:5AAF6F24-6AC7-430D-8A9D-6A33D0D09D00@xxxxxx Quote: >>> This is becoming a bigger problem for me lately.

| | Re: "Reclaim space on closing" Error Well, I guess I should have expected this answer, to uninstall, delete a couple of registry keys and reinstall. So I did and tested it and it worked one time, so set it back to compact after 50 runs and will see. Will keep you all posted. -- İLarryEş "Joseph Meehan" <sligoNoSPAMjoe@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:ew4#rMrlIHA.5080@xxxxxx Quote: > ... > > "İLarryEş" <me@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news 33C4867-221B-4D2C-9270-B2F04E041301@xxxxxxQuote: >> Regardless of how I do it, it will not close.

| | Re: "Reclaim space on closing" Error Yes, it does work. After you uninstall via the Control Panel, you will have to delete some entries in the registry. Here are the instructions I got from Microsoft: WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Please use Registry Editor at your own risk. a. Click "Start," click "Run," type "regedit," and then press ENTER to open a Registry Editor window. b. Click "HKEY_CURRENT_USER," click "SOFTWARE," and then click "MICROSOFT." Click "Windows Live Mail" and then press DELETE to delete the registry key. c. Click "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE," click "SOFTWARE," and click "MICROSOFT." Click "Windows Live Mail" and then press DELETE to delete the registry key. d. Exit Regedit, and then restart the computer. Then download the latest version of WLMail. Good luck. -- İLarryEş "Joseph Meehan" <sligoNoSPAMjoe@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:OqgMzh6tIHA.4772@xxxxxx Quote: > If it works I will be interested in some more details.
