Outlook Express paswoorden

[Mechanic]

Volgend probleem : Nieuwe pc en bij het overzetten van alle gegevens incl. e mail accounts onthoud Outlook geen enkel paswoord. Elke keer ik Outlook open moet ik van elke account het paswoord ingeven. Op de oude pc onthoud hij wel alle paswoorden. Is dit ergens een instelling ? ?
Hartelijk dank voor de hulp.

Mechanic,

Je kunt dit eens proberen. Anders doe ik het straks wel als ik langs kom.

SYMPTOMS
When you run Outlook Express using Microsoft Windows 2000 or Microsoft Windows XP and connect to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to retrieve e-mail messages from a Post Office Protocol (POP) server, your password is not retained even though you have chosen to save it.

CAUSE
The registry contains incorrect information for the Protected Storage System Provider registry subkey for your account.

RESOLUTION
To save your password you must back up your registry, remove the user account information, and then re-enter your password. Only people who are members of the Administrators group on the local computer can make these changes. Windows XP Home Edition users need to check the Users control panel. If they are not listed as an Administrator, someone with Administrator rights will have to add them to the Administrators group.

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

In the File name box, type a unique name for the key.
In the Save In box, click a location for the file, and then click Save.
On the Registry menu, click Exit.
