I have recently installed Outlook 97 on my PC. It has not removed the old inbox icon. Is there a way to remove it through registry settings, etc.???
 
I think you can remove it through

Control Panel / Add Remove Programs / Windows Setup

and untick the Windows Messaging box.

And click OK.
 
Thanks Paul for your reply.
I am running windows 98 which I forgot to mention, which does not come with windows messaging therefore I cannot remove it.
Any other suggestions?
 
On the Outlook 97 CD look in the Valupack\patch for a file called Chnginbx.exe It will change the Inbox to Outlook.
 
Thanks heaps. That worked perfect!
