I have got a SERIOUS problem. I back up often, to an external hard
drive.
Normally I keep a copy of "outlook.pst" in "My documents" on the
external as well. Furthermore I keep program files on my external.
Recently I had to reformat my laptop hard drive. I have done this
before then I reinstall everything (usually via CD but in this case I
did from the external drive which MAY have caused the problem).
So I reinstall Outlook via the external hard drive, thinking it would
save me time. All seems well, but when I go to import the Outlook.pst
file from the external, IT IS GONE. Let me be clear, there is NO
doubt in my mind it was there. None.
I THINK upon installing Outlook XP via the external drive, it somehow
deleted it (but no, it is not in my recycle bin).
So what Can I do? 12 years of contacts-gone!!!
