Does the ForceOSTPath setting actually change existing profiles' OSTs to
point to wherever, or will this only effect new Outlook profiles being setup? |

So even if I deleted the actual OST file in the old path, the next time
Outlook was launched, it would just recreate the OST file at that old path, and not the new ForceOSTPath, correct?
