Lost Contacts After Corrupted Windows User
My main Windows user became corrupted and I had to create a new user and
reconfigure a lot of things in Windows. I use Outlook Express for email and Outlook for contacts. I was able to reconfigure everything, but I cannot get access to my contacts list. Can anyone explain how I can recover my contacts (which I assume are still there somewhere) in Outlook. Thanks! -- Michael |

They are most likely in the other Windows user profile in the (hidden) folder C:\Documents and Settings\olduser\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\something.PST, where "olduser" is your previous username and "something" is whatever you named the file when you created it. If that folder is gone, then you've deleted your old data. -- Brian Tillman |
