.PST DISAPPEARED, LOST EVERYTHING... HELP
My computer kept bringing up a window saying the .pst file for my
outlook was corrupt. It said I should run chkdsk. I restarted the computer, and chkdsk ran... but my .pst file is gone. I've searched my whole hard drive, and it's nowhere to be found. What happened? I have no backup. Is there any way to recover it?

.PST DISAPPEARED, LOST EVERYTHING... HELP
Aloha Stockmoose16,
When you searched your hard drive, did you tell the search to check the hidden and system folders? In Outlook 2003 the PST file is saved in a hidden folder which won't appear under normal searches. -Ben- Ben M.

.PST DISAPPEARED, LOST EVERYTHING... HELP
Yes, i searched the hidden files. The only thing I could find was a
backup from 4 months ago. How do I recover all the e-mails? Ben M.

If you are sure you located all pst's, and opening them didnt show the
origonal info, then they are apparently gone "Stockmoose16" wrote in message ups.com... Yes, i searched the hidden files. The only thing I could find was a backup from 4 months ago.

Aloha Stockmoose16,
I suppose you don't have any backups of your data? If you don't then short of doing some fairly hardcore forensics on your hard drive I think you're probably out of luck.  -Ben- Ben M.
