Messages will not delete from deleted folder

Please help. I have over 900 messages that I have deleted that will not
delete from the deleted folder. You can see the message, delete it , then
delete it out of the deleted foleder, but then it appears again and now you
can not see the message and it has an error stating:

"Message could not be displayed
Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this
message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again"

Now it will not delete at all. Everyday more and more messages re-appear
with this error.

If anyone can help please let me know.

Thanks

Download and install this fix, with Windows Mail not running:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090

Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works in
other folders. 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.

Re: Messages will not delete from deleted folder

Try the same fix. If it doesn't work for you, what if any antivirus
programs do you have?

Hi Elisabet,

This will fix your stuck undeletable message:
Read the "First" section in this tutorial about antivirus programs to help prevent this from happening again, then install the KB941090 Microsoft Update in the "Second" section to fix the stuck message problem.
