Outlook Express Help

[GokuSS2]

Hey guys does anyone know were outlook express stores all it's settings and address book entries.
A friend formatted and reinstalled windows and thought he could copy the folder over. He copyed everything except the windows folder to anthor hard drive. He really needs the address's and settings. (Settings arent much of a problem they would just help.) Thanks :(

C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book

or

C:\Program Files\Outlook Express

Isn't it something more like this (I'm doing this off the top of my head since I'm using XP.)

C:\Windows\Application Data\Identities\Microsoft\Outlook Express <--- holds all the email data

C:\Program Files\Outlook Express <---just holds the application files.

And the easiest way I've found to save the address book is to export as a TXT file. File>Export. Then choose the text file version (not csv). Then save it (making sure to check all the boxes when it asks.)

though you wiull never find any address after a format.
that's why back-ups where invented.
