Deleted or Lost Outlook files
We recently had a third party organization come in to
update some workstations. In their efforts to change login names but maintain the same desktop settings, they copied user profiles to the network, deleted the profile on the workstation and then tried to copy the network profile back to the new user profile on the workstation. However, somewhere in the process they lost or deleted the outlook pst files for these workstations and three years of email and contacts have been lost! Obviously they should have exported these files before going through this process, but does anyone have any idea if these can be recovered and if so how? Thanks. |

Hi Tom,
search on the workstation to *.pst files. Also read this website where your PST file is normaly located: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm If the pst files are definitly deleted and you formated the harddisk (maybe with DOS), it is deleted, but maybe you forget only some settings if you searched for the PST. Have a look on the slipstick site. Good luck! -- Oliver Vukovics Public OutLook: Groupware for Outlook without Exchange Public SyncTool: Outlook PST Synchronization www.outlookstore.com |
