From: Willy on 16 Apr 2010 00:11 I'm using XP SP3 with IE8, tonight I uninstall a program and it required a Restart, when it came back up, my Outlook.pst file is missing. I searched entire hard drive, no file. I then did a System Restore and again file was missing. Any ideas or suggestions out there? I mainly use Outlook 2003 for the calendar feature to keep up with appointments etc. -- Thanks, Bill Post replies back to News Group

But did you enable viewing hidden files and folders before searching? If not, you won't find it. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
