Hi,

I have a big problem, when I change de location of my pst file for a simple future backup, the same is starting new , without any mail contact and folders. I change this when outlook is running !!
Now the old pst are not present in any place, hidden , micorsoft folders, ect, only there is the new empty pst with only 48k of data!! I'm testing all recovery program but only find the empty pst.
Anyone save if is possible to recovery this file, or it is definitivy overwrite.
Thank you

I'm sorry to say but if you can't find the pst-file anymore it's most likely
gone. The default location is;
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook


The problem is in the way you are trying to create a backup. Outlook must be
closed in order to create a backup. You can download a back-up add-in for
Outlook here;
