Default orphan personal folders file

I've got a personal folders entry on my outlook 2003 folder list that isn't
connected to any actual folders.

If I click on it I see an error message that says "The set of folders could
not be opened"

Presumably somewhere in the registry is an entry that leads to a null or
non-existant file.

Could anyone point me at a remedy? I've searched MS Support but no help
there.

Thanks

Posted here countless times. You have a corrupt profile, probably from
migrating a data file incorrectly. It's harmless. If you want to fix it,
create a new profile from scratch.
