Ok - this is 2007, so go to tools, trust center, addins - the fax addin
will
be listed there. Select the Com addins in the drop down and click Go.
Select it and click Remove. if its not there, select exchange extensions
from the drop down and Go.

I found the file and deleted it with Outlook closed: I then restarted
Outlook and when I attempted to reply to a message, the error
reappeared:
the error text is
"The Addin "FaxExtension" (C;Windows\System32\fxsext32.dll) cannot be
loaded
and has been disabled by Outlook. Please contact the Add-in
manufacturer
for
an update. If no update is available, please Uninstall the Add-in."
I have searched Windows\System32 and the file they name is not present.
I
cannot find anyplace to "uninstall" the Add-in, and I didn't even know
there
WAS an Add-in. I am assuming the manufacturer is Microsoft, since I
haven't
added any third-party stuff that messed with Outlook, to the best of my
knowledge.
I apologize for still having this situation, but I do appreciate your
assistance. If you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
(This
is
on my home system and I sometimes don't get to it every day ...)

Try
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
(it's all one line)
when it opens, find and delete extend.dat

to
%LocalAppData%?? Thanks for the response, sorry I'm lost in
where
to
find
it
...

''''Bye from Big Al
:
I started receiving a message when starting Outlook 2007 that
some
dll is missing for the "Add-in Fax Manager" for Outlook, and I
should
contact the manufacturer for an update. I don't ever remember
installing any Add-In Fax Manager, and don't have a clue what
this
is
about. Any suggestions?
WIth Outlook closed, try deleting the (usually hidden) file
%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\extend.dat
(on XP)
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\extend.dat (Vista)
