Outlook 2003 pst backup

[Ken Buxton]

I've downloaded and installed the pfbackup.exe and installed it. But, it
does not show up under the file menu. I've rebooted,
uninstalled/reinstalled; everything I can think of and it still does not
show up.

Any ideas?

OS: windows xp pro

Outlook version?

It should be under the Files menu in Outlook, right?

Start Outlook, click Tools>Options>Other>Advanced Options>COM Add-Ins>Add.
Browse to C:\Programs Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Addins\outbak.dll,
select it, and click OK. Stop and restart Outlook. Now check the File
menu. If you're using Smart Menus, be sure to expand the menu fully.

That worked.

I have a similar problem with some of my users.

Win XP Pro
Office 2k3

PST backup add in loaded, works for a while then the check mark in the Com
Addins is gone. If I put the check back in it gets removed once I hit ok. I
have the latest ver of the backup tool. I have uninstalled, rebooted,
installed, rebooted and still the add in shows in the Com Addins window but
is not active.

Anybody have any thoughts?
