pfbackup won't reinstall

S

Shell

Has pfbackup working, but after installing server its disappeared(as did
outlook messages). I've got messages back from a previous backup, but cannot
reinstall pfbackup in order to continue taking regular backups.
Message says previous version detected, followed by can't uninstall-use
add/remove programs. However theres nothing in add/remove programs & I've
done a search & nothing comes up there either.
Any ideas on how to continue backing up outlook pop account emails?

Does outback.dll exist?; - NB your path may be different
c:\program files\microsoft office\office\addins\outbak.dll

I don't know - will look on mon when back in work. Do I take it that if its
missing I need to try & download a addin?
Thanks

Assuming the dll exists;
The add-in may not be registered correctly. So, try registering the dll with
the following steps.

1. Exit Outlook.
2. On the Start menu click Run
3. In the Open box type the following and click OK.

regsvr32 "c:\program files\microsoft office\office\addins\outbak.dll"

NOTE: You may need to adjust the above path to Outbak.dll to match the
location on your computer.
Also check under Outlook comms/addins that the backup addin is selected
