In reply to Sean. Hello Sean, thank you for your comment. I , personally, never ran into that issue, but that could be true. One thing I would make sure, you are sending your messages in HTML (File>Mail> Compose messages in HTML). Also make sure your signature didn't get messed up during the transfer as well.

In reply to Merlin Halteman. I believe this fix messed up some things for me, my contacts do not receive html emails; although they are sent in html. They receive a bunch of links in the footer in place of signature. All settings are fine and after numerous tests I narrowed down that this has been caused by using this method to get the auto-complete back working. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks ;)

Awesome, it worked perfectly!
I cant thank you enough for this incredibly valuable info. I cant remember any ones email address anymore since I have been using outlook for soooo looong. Used to be (NK2 file) I did not even know it was now a DAT file.
I unfortunately switched to the 365 office cloud and lost my autocomplete so this was a godsend!
THANK YOU!
I learned something new and valuable today!

In reply to Sean. Don't hold me to this, but I don't believe you have to do anything with the other stream files. I know in my situation I didn't transfer any of those addition files.

Worked like a charm! Thanks! One question though – what about other files stream_calender, stream_contactprefs, stream_categorylist, etc, do I also need to move them the same way? I’m just worried not to lose any data or settings. Thanks again!
