Lost Email Client And Emails

[Postdog]

I'm running Windows seven and have been using Windows live mail with no problems. Tonight however I changed my antivirus from AVG free to Avast paid for.

Somehow in the process I lost my live mail icon from the desktop and when I looked in the program list on the start menu, it wasn't there either.

I don't think I have lost my saved mails (hope not) but is there any way I can look for them and hopefully retrieve them.

Also is there any way I can get live mail back as was, with connections details etc, or will I have to (and how) reinstall it.

By the way I tried system restore but no joy.

Tags much my.

Try using Start > Search to look for wlmail.exe

If it's there, double-click on it to run it. Hopefully you'll then see Windows Live Mail as before. If so, right-click on wlmail.exe and select Send To > Desktop (Shortcut).

Had a tiring day so not had a chance to try yet, but thanks for the advice and will try when able.
