.pst does not open correctly

S

Slick

Hello. Before reformatting, I made sure I copied my .pst file. Although, it
did not open correctly after going to File>Open>Outlook Data File... No error
message, but non of the folders loaded. Only messages I received were 2 in my
Inbox (which wasn't the original location) and all my sent items. When I made
a .pst copy, it was in a personal folder. I noticed there is a .pst file
called "Outlook" made by the install program, so I wonder, once folders are
loaded from a personal .pst, is everything saved to that "Outlook" file? All
help is appreciated.

Thank you!

Matt,

yes all info including folders are saved in the outlook.pst file. Are you
certain you copied the correct pst file? It is always a good idea to look at
the date of the pst file and make sure it's recent and not an old one from
the past.

Ok. But I have in the past loaded .pst files (that weren't the "Outlook.pst"
file) labeled by me. This .pst file (called "matthew") was loaded before the
format in Outlook successfully. In fact, I can't recall ever using the
"Outlook" file supplied by Microsoft, it has always been this matthew.pst
file, being copied over.
