Opening Winmail In Windows 7

[Liz65]

Have hundreds of stored .eml files which I can't open in recently installed Win 7. Have tried a few progs but no joy. Any suggestions, apart from deleting them all! Many thanks

Install a local email client, such as Thunderbird
https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/thunderbird/

or Windows Essentials Mail
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-live/essentials-other#essentials=overviewother

Possibly worth a try:
http://www.emlreader.com/
(NB: I know nothing about that software. If you decide to try it, scan the download with your anti-virus software and then, after installing it, rum a malware scan with the free version of Malwarebytes).

Alternatively try installing the Thunderbird email client - you don't have to actually use it as such - together with the ImportExportTools add-on:

and
