Re: Outlook 2007 lost emails when moved to Vista
The default locations being;
a.. Make sure you include hidden and system files and folders when
searching for pst-file
b.. By default it is located in
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\
For Windows Vista the default is
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outloo k\
c.. You can also locate the file by using
Rightclick the root folder (probably Outlook Today)-> Properties-> button
Advanced-> field Filename
