Accidentally deleted Outlook profile
Need some help from someone smart.... I was having trouble with my Outlook (syncing with Activesync, closing properly, etc.) I had tried Xobni..liked it but decided it may have been part of the problem. So i uninstalled it. Then I was totally unable to open Outlook. Period. Searched for a solution, and found out how to go to regedit, and change the registry profile. I didn't see any warning that I would lose my Outlook files (emails, contacts, calendar), so I proceeded. Good news: I am now able to use Outlook again. Bad news: all old emails are gone. I was able to recover calendar via my Google calendar sync, and my contacts via my smartphone sync. But all emails are gone. Does anyone know of a process to recover emails from this process? -- bjmaack

The mail is still there in the data file, probably named outlook.pst
Within outlook, FileOpenData File...browse to and open it. PS There is no registry hack required to delete or creat a new profile, you simply use the mail applet in the Control Panel. Niether does uninstall/Reinstall do anything for a corrupt profile. Obviously you failed to look at any of the numerous Outllook help sites or MS for a solution "bjmaack" wrote in message ...
