I was recently given a new computer at work. It's running Win XP Pro sp3 along with Office 2007. We do not use Exchange here. I copied my email onto a CD prior to getting the new one, and transferred everything over without a hitch. Everything worked great. No problems getting email or opening Outlook.
First thing this morning, I try to open up my Outlook and receive the following error: "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file C:\Documents and Settings\Jennifer\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst is not a personal folders file." I click OK and Outlook closes.
I tried to run Scanpst on the folder, but received another error message: "An error has occurred which caused the scan to be stopped. No changes have been made to the scanned file."
So, I tried system restore to a point when I knew that my email was still working. That didn't fix the problem.
Why would everything work fine for a month and then stop working? Can you think of a way to get that file back? I really need that calendar. My emails are important, but not as much as my calendar.
Thanks in advance.
