Old Inbox Gone

D

Diane

I removed a domain from my PC & created a workgroup. In
the process of doing this, my old Outlook profile is
now "missing" with my saved messages, contacts, etc.
Obviously it's on the hard drive somewhere, but I am
unsure as to where to find this info. I was able to find
my favorites, cookies, etc, but where are the outlook
files saved (like if there were different users on a pc,
where are each of their contacts, messages, settings, etc
stored.

Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Diane

Look for either a .pst or .ost file, depending on whether you had been using
Exchange (.ost) or Personal Folders (.pst). If you are using Windows 2000
or XP, turn on searching hidden/system files.
