My inbox is completely erased after last night's windows update restart. I tried to reimport the inbox.dbx file but keep getting "no messages can be found" error. tried to copy the .dbx file else where, rename the old .dbx file and reimport, also didn't work.

I know folk that love that old email system but my advice is to move to Thunderbird and never run on PCs without backups of what you can't lose.
