Hi folks,

From Win XP I did a custom install of Windows 7. In addition to the
Easy Transfer Wizard and Windows.old backups, I did numerous other
manual backups to my internal "D" drive.

Outlook 2003 is being used.

One of these backups was D:\Office PST Backup\Outlook.pst

After the Win 7 install, I used Easy Transfer to move my files and
settings to "C" prior to installing the programs.

Now when I activate Outlook the expected .pst presents, but then a cue
"path specified in D:\Office PST Backup\Outlook.pst not found".

If I go to Outlook\File\Data File Management and delete the offending
file, I then get an "Operation Failed" on Outlook startup. It works
on the second attempt but then goes through the Backup\Outlook.pst not
found procedure again.

Same thing happens if I delete the Backup\Outlook.pst file from thje
"D" drive.

In my Outlook Navigation pane I only have one personal folder, so I
have nothing to delete there.

I have uninstalled/reinstalled Outlook, and have tried various pst
files with no luck.

Is there a way to force Outlook into ignoring an unwanted pst?


Thanks, Gary
