Outlook Pst file lost
rllngriver 27.09.2006 17:12:02
I have a client that was having an issue with his Word Normal.dot template.
It was somehow renamed and put in a different place.Malware was mostlikely
the culprit.

In an effort to correct this issue, I went to Add/Remove Programs and chose
to change the configuration settings to the default installation.
Unfortunately, all of his outlook settings were overwritten. His .pst backup
file vanished. The only one I could find had old information. There are no
restore points.


Do you have any idea how I can recover this pst file as he needs to have a
record of all of his sent files?


I was able to recover his inbox from the verizon server, but they do not
keep a record of sent emails sent through outlook.

What do you advise?


Thank you. I appreciate it.

You have searched, to include hidden, for *.pst?
The pst doesn't get deleted by changing settings, or uninstalling OL
