How to install outlook express on windows xp with explorer 8?

This is an awkward problem to solve and one I don't think is worth the time and effort.

The OP would be better off either using a modern webmail service like gmail or outlook.com or using a modern email client like Windows Live Mail like FX-GMC suggested or Thunderbird from Mozilla. If nothing else, Outlook Distress was notorious for corrupting its data files and losing all your email in one easy step. Not worth it.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 7 Will Not Include Email, Photo and Movie Programs

Here's my two or three cents on the matter: Their "bloatware" like IE and outlook are very functional and I've used them immensely. Now granted, outlook express is nowhere near as good as the outlook that ships with the office suite, but it works great.

I really think to solve the problem of everyone bitching about different things, EVERYTHING should be an install option. Don't slip in msn messenger or outlook express if I don't want it. Don't force me to install internet explorer if I don't want it, AND, if it's offered as an option in the install of windows, why not offer opera and firefox as well?

It would be nice if the installer put windows on the system with the capability to connect to the web, then the last steps of the install connected to the internet to update a list of available browsers, email clients, im clients, paint clients, media players, and even calculators, and you selected which ones you wanted.

I was thinking the same exact thing. Maybe they could go to office depot and buy one, that's not a hassle is it? LOL
