My hard drive crashed and i'm trying to locate and restore my data files from my bad drive to my new hard drive. Where do i find the .pst file? When i try to look through OUtlook, it says it's in appdata/. There is no appdata subfolder. |

Depends on what OS and Outlook version you were using on the old hard drive. Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010771141033.aspx -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "CarolineT" <CarolineT@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A7ABC50C-1AAB-4C22-8C0E-40066A32141B@microsoft.com... > My hard drive crashed and i'm trying to locate and restore my data files > from > my bad drive to my new hard drive. > > Where do i find the .pst file?

\AppData is normally hidden To show it, you'll have to change it in Windows Explorer: Organize - Folder & Search Options - View (.) Show hidden files and folders -- Vista Home Premium 32 SP1 http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "CarolineT" <CarolineT@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A7ABC50C-1AAB-4C22-8C0E-40066A32141B@microsoft.com... > My hard drive crashed and i'm trying to locate and restore my data files > from > my bad drive to my new hard drive. > > Where do i find the .pst file?

Then it will get backed up when you back up your documents. You do back up, don't you! Happiness is a recent back up! |
