I made a quick .exe that patches it for you (it just uses a string reader/writer since those <elements> can be accessed if you open the dll as a .txt). Backup mailres2.dll first since I've only tested this once or twice, it might not be stable yet. It's in C# (which I'm a noob at) and you need the .NET Framework 2.0

If this is breaking Neowin rules, this post can be removed :p

after i put that patch, the program doesnt start anymore. and when it does start it errors and exits. thanks... oh well, didnt need the program anyways.

I am having the same problem. Any ideas??

This is from Jim in the WLMD newsgroup, I claim no credit or liability if it doesn't work, but the guys experiencing this in the newsgroup reported that it works ok:

If that is the problem, open the registry to this key with the Mail Desktop

Beta closed:

HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2592889828-4208865303-1639956936-1006\Software\Microsoft\Windows

Live Mail Desktop Beta

Look in the right hand column for "Tree" and change its value from 0 to 1.

Exit Registry Editor and reopen Mail Desktop Beta. You should now see your

Folder List in the left hand pane.

Does anyone know how to get rid of the ActiveSearch pane? I went to View> ActiveSearch Off, but that didn't work, even after restarting WLMD

EDIT: Nevermind. I got it.

Sorry about that :p

Not sure, for me ActiveSearh pane will not turn on, the option is grayed out.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
