annoying emails stored on my pc :@ by deyapretty on 06-11-2011 at 10:32 AM

Hi!

Everytime I type something in the search bar (in Windows Vista) there are "emails" appearing in the results.
These emails are mine, no doubt about it, but I have no idea where they come from!
I've checked Outlook and Windows Live Mail and deleted everything possible but still these emails are appearing. I've even tried uninstalling WLM!

I wonder in which folder they are stored but I'd like to delete them permanently.

Any idea of how to do this?

(I'll enclose a pic)

The mails in your screenshot seem to be from Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail is a different application.

Windows Mail is part of Vista. Not sure which folder it stores the mails, I'm sure you can google it. But there should be a Windows Mail shortcut in your startmenu somewhere from where you can take care of things.

Yes I know they are from Windows Mail, but in case I deleted the messages from Outlook. I right-clicked on one of those messages and selected "Open Folder".
It's a sort of temporary folder. When I click Delete the message deletes itself but if I press F5 the message reappears!
It's very annoying :(

I've tried looking for the Windows Mail folder but it's empty, I mean no messages or anything...
