outlook pf backup topwath 2/24/2006 11:08:27 PM similar problem to Robin Briggs (17.12.2005). I installed and ran the pfbackop wit OL2003 ok. Had a major system crash and had to restore from bkf file. Then had to reinstall office 2003 anyway. Pfvackup no longer runs, backup not available on filr menu or listed in COM add-ins. When I try to reinstall, I get an error message saying pfbackup is already indtalled - must answer Yes to next question which aks if youwant to uninstall the current version. When you answer Yes it says the command is only valid for installed products (catch 22?) and to uninstall using Add/Remove Programs. Only it doesn't appear in the Add/Remove Programs list!! How do I reinstall it, please? Many Thanks Kev

Re: outlook pf backup "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" <suemvp[ at ]outlookcode.com> 2/25/2006 11:49:50 PM Unfortunately, not being certain how PFB might have reached that state, I don't know how to get it out. And Microsoft provides it as-is, with no support.
