Local folders

I think we may have had this question before.

All of a sudden the folders on the left hand side of the screen have
disappeared. (i.e. In box, sent items, out box etc.) I can bring them back
manually everytime I log on to Windows Mail, but they used to appear
automatically when I start up and this is not happening for some reason.

I have had Windows Mail for two years now.

Anyone know how to correct this.

Thanks a lot.

One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may be disallowing the changes from "sticking." These include
anti-spyware applications (e.g., Ad-aware's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea Timer,
SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, CounterSpy, WinPatrol, etc),
anti-virus applications & security suites (Norton, McAfee, ESET/NOD32,
Kasperky, Trend Micro, etc.), and third-party firewalls (e.g., Zone Alarm,
etc.).

Note that temporarily disabling the application(s) or rebooting into Safe
Mode may not disable the application's system protections.

Did what you suggested and all the ticks were there. I unticked them and re
ticked them and it is still not working. I seem to remember that it happened
once before and after a fe weeks it corrected itself. I will post back here
if that happens again

Thanks for the advice

As I tought it has corrected it self this morning without me doing anything.
All working as it should now. very strange.

Do appreciate the replies in trying to resolve this. It seems to resolve
itself after a few days without doing anything

Thanks again.
