An unknown error has occurred ! This message could not be display

After downloading the hot fix I did not get the following on either the
32-bit or 64-bit version: Note If the Install ActiveX Control command is not
displayed in the Information Bar menu, you will need to use the Alternate
Validation Method described below. The Alternate Validation Method did not
work with my system.

3. In the Security Warning dialog box, click Install.

Similar situation here but it's my deleted items folder where the problem
occurs. In drop down folder list, it's showing I have over 300 deleted
messages in the deleted items folder. Right clicking or going to the Edit
drop down to "empty the deleted folder" gives me the message of "An Unknown
Error Has Occurred". However, when I actually open the deleted items folder,
it appears totally empty!
I've checked out many of these discussion posts looking for a solution and
tried a few fixes but none work, not even the positive sounding advice from
Gary VanderMolen.

It would have been helpful had you told us what you tried already.

Try running the various repair functions in the WMUtil program:
http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil

If no improvement, upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
