I have been using Windows Live Mail on a Windows 10 PC. It has a relatively small SSHD ("C Drive"). Therefore, I set up Live Mail so that the Email Message Store is on a second Drive ("D Drive"). This had been working for a long time.

One day, after trying to wake up the PC from sleep mode, the PC hung, so I hard rebooted. Then Live Mail kept giving me several different error messages when I tried launching it, such as: Can't locate data files, Can't find junk filter, Calendar corrupt, etc.

 

For the last couple of days I've tried various things, such as rebooting many times, uninstalling & reinstalling Live Mail many times, using back-up copies of the Email Message Store Files, and editing the File Store Location information in the registry.

 

I finally figured out I could get Live Mail to launch if I moved my Email Message Store file from the D Drive to the C Drive. Unfortunately, the file structure I used to save emails is all screwed up. I have over 10 years worth of emails stored in these files!

Can anyone help me fix this problem?
