An
Alternate Way
As
you may remember, last week, I wrote a pretty important tip for all
you Outlook Express users out there. It had to do with the Folders column
and how you could get it back if you ever happened to lose it (you can
read that tip here).
That list can sometimes disappear on its own and after that happens,
it may seem like it's impossible to get it back. Well, it's not! I proved
that in last week's tip and I'm going to prove it again today. Yep,
I have yet another way you can get your Folders list back and this one's
just as easy!
The
day after that tip was in the newsletter, I received a phone call from
a loyal reader and he was having trouble with it. We went through the
steps together and he seemed to be doing everything correctly, but his
computer would just not let him click the push pin icon to get the column
back. Each time he tried, it would just blank out on him. I was very
confused as to why that was happening, but I got to thinking that some
of the rest of you may be having the same problem. So, I started looking
around in Outlook Express and I found an alternate way to get the Folders
list back. Yes!
And
here's how you do it. In Outlook Express, go up to the View
menu and then click on Layout. Once you're there, you'll
see a section titled Basic. Look through those options
and checkmark the one that says Folder List. Then just
click OK and your Folders column will be back, exactly
the way it was before it left you. All in all, if you're having trouble
with the first method I gave you, give this one a try. It goes through
one of the main menus, so it's bound to work for you. With this, you'll
never have to live without your folders ever again!
