Corrupt Outlook Express 6 Inbox

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 even tried to delete my outlook express mail accounts and read them, also didn't work. I am running WinXP on old PC. I don't think I have a virus on my computer as my scan didn't return any virus. Thanks.

 

Outlook Express is incompatible with Windows 7. I'm surprised you have even been able to install it, let alone run it.
