Haven't had to repair OE6 in quite a long time. It looks into the windows.old folder and gets the information it needs and after it is done, all you need then is the (latest release) original OE6 installation files and it works.
I also have the program that restores the OE6 to the computer.
One thing I started doing a lot time ago is to export the "identities" in the user hive (Registry) as well as the Outlook Express -> here \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Outlook Express to a different drive, usually on my laptop it is D:\backups BTW your unique key code for OE6 is stored in that latter registry hive. I am still using Outlook Express 6 (from ) on desktop, and 2 laptops that have Windows 10 Pro on them. Why don't you contact their user support and they will guide you how to do it, as it is surely possible. Import is most definitely possible and will preserve your messages integrity 100% (messages, attachments, folders, tree, read/unread/replied/forwarded/flagged status). It has 2 importers - "Microsoft Outlook Express 6" which imports directly from (DBX) files directly the message contents exactly as it appears in the DBX files, and also "Windows Mail" importer which only works on Windows XP and Vista and uses Microsoft's own API to import messages both from Windows Mail, Outlook Express 6 (32 bit) and Outlook Express 6 (64 bit on WinXP 64bit) but this API only exists on Windows XP and Windows Vista so if using that importer the import must be done directly on XP or Vista, otherwise you would use the former importer which reads directly from files and can be used on Windows 10 or Windows 11. OE Classic can easily import Outlook Express files and will keep not only the tree nesting but also the message flags (replied, forwarded, flagged etc.).
