I ran these searches just now - I don't have your utility, but I did find a club big enough to force WinDoze to search subfolders. No joy. WinDoze is quite certain those files don't exist anywhere in the file structure. I'm not altogether convinced, but I'm not sure how much more time I can give this thing. Now I'm wondering whether the fact that TB! is installed to my work drive, not to c:\windows\programfilesx86 might be the problem. I've been running it off the work partition for at least several releases, so it didn't occur to me that that could be causing issues. If so, I'm thinking it might be better to reinstall to the conventional folder. Otherwise, it looks like I'm going to have to abandon TB!, because it really has become unusable here, with no filters and no view pane. I have to load every mail just to id it - lots of list mail, and it takes as long to load a 'me too' message as an informative one. It's also decided not to bother with sig files, except in this isp account. Not mission critical, but more time wasted pasting them in manually. Or, I might load Voyager to a 16G thumb drive ... I do have the dl, but I haven't found the list messages very encouraging, so I haven't done anything with it. Getting pretty desperate ... but I'm not willing to give up the computer yet. But you know ... email is key!
