Duplicate Personal Folder after installation - Outlook 2002

K

Kim Sang Yong

My previous outlook was corrupted and managed to save the files. The problem
is after I have reinstall the entire outlook 2002 and imported the data back
into the system, I notice that there duplicate folders. Each time I delete
the other folder, the rest of it gets deleted.

Do you know why and how I can resolve this ?

Thanks

Never import a PST file. You've corrupted your profile.
Create a new profile and just open your PST file.

I had the same problem. Russ, I thought importing the PST file is the proper
way to convert to unicode. Is that not correct?

That will allow you to change PST file formats, but will invoke all the
problems that importing PST files causes. Do what Brian posted instead.
