Missing messages...AGAIN!!! HELP!!!!

N

needhelp

Okay, I just don't get what's going on. This is the second time this has
happened and I know it was because I moved folders around but I didn't delete
them so i didn't think it would harm anything. Well, after moving the pst
folders from desktop to My documents all my messages were gone when I
reaccessed Outlook. Everything...AGAIN!. Luckily, after learning the first
time I saved my incoming messages on the server. I have found the pst I was
using but my messages are gone and I have no idea where to find them. The
first time this happened I called Microsoft support they said I had a
password on the pst and I knew for a fact I didn't set up one but they said I
did and there was nothing they could do until I figured out the password.
Well, that was going to be pretty hard to do since I never set up one. So I
searched the internet and downloaded the Atomic password recovery tool and it
worked. The password that came up was a random code with upper and
lowercass letters, nothing close to anything I would ever use because there
was no way I would use those letters or put them in a combination like they
were. I still have no idea how a password was set up without me actually
doing it. Anyway, it opened the pst but still no messages. The same thing
is happening now, I found all my pst's and still no messages only the ones
from a year and half ago. And these old messages appear in all the pst's
which is another weird thing because the new messages that are missing are
in a pst that I set up recently just for a specific email address but the
olds that shouldn't even be in this new pst are there but not the new
messages.


What's going on?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
