Corrupt pst works, but won't repair using Scanpst

[LarryMac]

Running Outlook 2007 on XP Pro

I was getting "another workstation is modifying your pst..." messages, but
Outlook was functioning most of the time.

When I ran Scanpst.exe, it said there were errors and I had it fix them.
The result was a datafile called Recovered Outlook. That datafile was
completely empty...no contacts, appointments, or emails. I attempted to
create a new pst and import the old pst, which worked, but when I ran scanpst
on that, I got the same empty datafile.

All my Outlook data is still in the old, corrupted file.

I would appreciate suggestions on how to bring this back to life.

Thank you!

[DL]

If this pst is stored/accessed over a network, this type of configeration is
not supported by MS as it can lead to corruption of the pst

 

[LarryMac]

No, it is not over a network.

 

[DL]

Sorry, I obviously miss interpreted your post, in ref to 'Workstation'

If you create a new pst, then import old data, immediately shutdown Outlook,
then start outlook using the safe switch;
run>outlook.exe /safe
do you get the same warnings?

 

[LarryMac]

Unfortunately, the warnings were intermittent. If I go back to an old backup
I can try and figure that out.

What is recommended in such a situation?

 

[Pat Willener]

Importing a PST file into another one will most likely corrupt that
target PST file; do not use export/import to/from PST files.

If scanpst cannot repair your old PST file (and Outlook can still use
it), then I would try the following
- create a new PST file
- open it with Outlook
- drag-and-drop all items/folders from the old to the new PST file
(use right-click drag-and-drop to select between Move and Copy)
- close and discard the old PST file

Running Outlook 2007 on XP Pro

I was getting "another workstation is modifying your pst..." messages, but
Outlook was functioning most of the time.

When I ran Scanpst.exe, it said there were errors and I had it fix them.
The result was a datafile called Recovered Outlook. That datafile was
completely empty...no contacts, appointments, or emails. I attempted to
create a new pst and import the old pst, which worked, but when I ran scanpst
on that, I got the same empty datafile.

All my Outlook data is still in the old, corrupted file.

I would appreciate suggestions on how to bring this back to life.

Thank you!

I did that with the email without a problem.

It is not clear how to do that with calendar and contacts.

Can that be done?

If SCANPST can't handle it but it's working sufficiently to see most of the
items, create a new PST (File>New>Outlook Data File), set it as your
delivery location (Tools>Account Settings>Data Files tab>select the new
PST>Set as Default), stop and restart Outlook, then:

1) if a folder in the old PST is not a default folder, right-click and drag
the folder to the root of the new PST (the Outlook Today icon). Choose
Copy.
2) if a folder is a default folder, open it in the old PST, select all the
elements in it with Ctrl-A, right-click the selection and drag it to the
corresponding default folder in the new PST. Choose Copy. For the
calendar, you'll need to use a table view like By Category for Ctrl-A to
work.

When done with the copying, right-click the root of the old PST and choose
Close.

 

[LarryMac]

Brian,

Thanks. I tried all that and it looks like the pst file is still in bad
shape.

Do you think a new profile needs to be created? If so, what would be the
best way to import all the data?

Thanks,
Larry

Do you mean the NEW PST is now corrupted?

Do you think a new profile needs to be created? If so, what would be the
best way to import all the data?

It can't hurt, but I don't see how it will help, either. And you never
import from a PST or you do risk corrupting the mail profile. I described
the best way to move data from one PST to another.

 

[LarryMac]

Yes, apparently the new pst is corrupt. At one point I did attempt to
import, in which case you said the profile would be corrupted.

When I run scanpst, it says there are 2 folders and no content. I had more
than a dozen folders in the pst.

I have many backups of my pst that can be worked on, but each time I have
run the scanpst, the result is a Recovered without any content.

Would it be best for me to start over with a new profile, or is something
like Stellar's outlook pST Repair a good bet?

While it may get to a point that you want to use a third-party tool, If what
you describe were happening to me, I'd try my method again, but break it
down into smaller chunks. First, I'd copy just my Contacts data and then
use SCANPST to see if a PST containing only the contacts is clean. Then I'd
copy my Calendar data and check again. Then I'd copy Tasks data and check
again. Checking after each folder will tell which folder is the troublesome
one. If I find a folder that after copying the data causes SCANPST to
choke, I'd then break that one into pieces, copying only a portion of if
until I could isolate what data in the folder is cauing the problem. Once
I'd moved all non-mail folders, I'd start on the mail folders in the same
way. It may be tedious, but eventually I'd wind up isolating where the
problem arises. If after all that I couldn't isolate the problem, I might
spring for another tool. I guess it just depends on whether you want to
spend your time to avoid the expense.

 

[LarryMac]

Brian,

OK. That yielded some information that may help you identify the problem.

I ran scanpst on one of the psts that wouldn't open and it repaired it,
creating a pst with nothing in it. To be sure, I ran scanpst on the repaired
pst and it came up clean with no errors.

THEN when I used DataFile Management to Add the clean pst to go through your
procedure, it said the clean pst had an error. I tried repairing it again,
and each time that I Added a clean pst it would show it as having an error.
I would run scanpst again, show it clean, and Add it again and it had an
error.

So just attempting to open the pst is some how adding an error to it. This
also happens when Outlook is opened in safe mode.

Does that suggest something else?

Thanks,
Larry

 

[Jhon Steve]

Hi,

You can use Outlook recovery tools to repair your PST file. Below is a list of them:

http://www.datanumen.com/aor/compare.htm

Most of them provide a free demo so you can try first.

If scanpst cannot repair your old PST file (and Outlook can still use
it), then I would try the following
- create a new PST file
- open it with Outlook
- drag-and-drop all items/folders from the old to the new PST file
(use right-click drag-and-drop to select between Move and Copy)
- close and discard the old PST file

If SCANPST can't handle it but it's working sufficiently to see most of the
items, create a new PST (File>New>Outlook Data File), set it as your
delivery location (Tools>Account Settings>Data Files tab>select the new

1) if a folder in the old PST is not a default folder, right-click and drag
the folder to the root of the new PST (the Outlook Today icon). Choose
Copy.
2) if a folder is a default folder, open it in the old PST, select all the
elements in it with Ctrl-A, right-click the selection and drag it to the
corresponding default folder in the new PST. Choose Copy. For the
calendar, you'll need to use a table view like By Category for Ctrl-A to
work.

When done with the copying, right-click the root of the old PST and choose
Close.

Brian,

Thanks. I tried all that and it looks like the pst file is still in bad
shape.

Do you think a new profile needs to be created? If so, what would be the
best way to import all the data?

Thanks,
Larry

Do you mean the NEW PST is now corrupted?


It can't hurt, but I don't see how it will help, either. And you never
import from a PST or you do risk corrupting the mail profile. I described
the best way to move data from one PST to another.

Yes, apparently the new pst is corrupt. At one point I did attempt to
import, in which case you said the profile would be corrupted.

When I run scanpst, it says there are 2 folders and no content. I had more
than a dozen folders in the pst.

I have many backups of my pst that can be worked on, but each time I have
run the scanpst, the result is a Recovered without any content.

Would it be best for me to start over with a new profile, or is something
like Stellar's outlook pST Repair a good bet?

While it may get to a point that you want to use a third-party tool, If what
you describe were happening to me, I'd try my method again, but break it
down into smaller chunks. First, I'd copy just my Contacts data and then
use SCANPST to see if a PST containing only the contacts is clean. Then I'd
copy my Calendar data and check again. Then I'd copy Tasks data and check
again. Checking after each folder will tell which folder is the troublesome
one. If I find a folder that after copying the data causes SCANPST to
choke, I'd then break that one into pieces, copying only a portion of if
until I could isolate what data in the folder is cauing the problem. Once
I'd moved all non-mail folders, I'd start on the mail folders in the same
way. It may be tedious, but eventually I'd wind up isolating where the
problem arises. If after all that I couldn't isolate the problem, I might
spring for another tool. I guess it just depends on whether you want to
spend your time to avoid the expense.

Brian,

OK. That yielded some information that may help you identify the problem.

I ran scanpst on one of the psts that wouldn't open and it repaired it,
creating a pst with nothing in it. To be sure, I ran scanpst on the repaired
pst and it came up clean with no errors.

THEN when I used DataFile Management to Add the clean pst to go through your
procedure, it said the clean pst had an error. I tried repairing it again,
and each time that I Added a clean pst it would show it as having an error.
I would run scanpst again, show it clean, and Add it again and it had an
error.

So just attempting to open the pst is some how adding an error to it. This
also happens when Outlook is opened in safe mode.

Does that suggest something else?

Thanks,
Larry
