Backing Up Outlook

[G118]

I am trying to back up my .pst Outlook files. Any error keeps coming up:

Cannot copy Outlook: data error (cyclic redundancy check)

Any advice?

What does it mean to "run scanpst.exe against your pst-file to check "? How
do you do that?

Run the Inbox Repair Tool
1. Click Start and point to Find, or Search, depending upon your
operating system.
2. In the Search for files or folders named box, type scanpst.exe.
3. Double click the Scanpst.exe file to open the program.
4. Type the path and file name of the pst file, or click Browse to
locate the file using the windows file system.
5. Click Start.
