How do I retrieve lost email, calendar, address book etc

[Pauline]

I had a persistent message that Outlook could not be opened, searched all
options to fix but could not find anything that work. Tried several times to
go back using restore point, uninstalling and reinstalling office etc, all to
no avail. Have turned on this morning and was now given option to create new
profile, which I have and can now access email again.
Am assuming my old profile is still somewhere on my computer and can be
restored. I have searched for .pst files and .pab files but draw a blank.

Does anyone know if I can get my stuff back?

Cheers Pauline

Outlook does not use PAB files. Your PST file is still there. Just find it
and open it in Outlook. It is ha hidden file.

See http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/filepath.htm for the location of
the pst. When you find it you can open it in the new profile using file,
open, outlook data file.
