14551 2001-06-24 22:35:00 In the internet options in internet explorer I want to add Outlook Express as my e-mail account but the option is blank and cannot type anything in it. How do I restore this back to normal. I tried using restore web defaults with no success.
Any ideas
Thanks
Terry

a quick suggestion would be reinstall MS Internet explorer, To do that , go into add, remove programs and reinstall the same. This should work.

Cheers

Fix it by manually registering Outlook Express: Go to Start, Run command and type C:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe /reg
I'm assuming this is the correct path to Outlook Express on your computer, if it's not use the browse button to find it.
After rebooting you will be able to set Outlook Express as your default mail hander.
Hope this helps

'C:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe' /reg
