Does Outlook's Auto Archive Always APPEND TO or OVERWRITE a Previous Backup?

P

Peter D

I ask because in another thread it was stated that auto-archive always
appends, but lots of advice on multiple sites caution the user that it
always over-writes. If it always appends, then I can use it. If it always
overwrites, I can't. I think this is a very important distinction for the
user and thus we should know one way or the other which is true append or
over-write.
Thanks.

Yes, it always appends, because it is adding individual items to the folders in the archive .pst file, not overwriting that file.
