Question
Hi,

Recently my Windows XP Pro got corrupted and I decided to re-install it on another drive. The problem that I have now is that I had important email files stored through Microsoft Outlook that I cannot find now to import into the new Windows. Similarly I can't find the latest addresses from the old Address Book as well as the  Favorites (bookmarks in Netscape).

Can you help?

Thanks,
Tibby

Answer
Hello Tibby,

This is a common thing and although I haven't yet created a 'tip' for it like my other ones on my own website, I will point you to someone I know that has the answer already written up for you at his website located here:

http://ask-leo.com/where_is_my_outlook_pst_file_located.html

What I would suggest since you say you reinstalled windows to a different drive, is to go and visit my website at http://tpsconsulting.com and read the TIPS page on OPTIMIZING your computer. Then go to the SOFTWARE/SUPPORT page where you should then install all the programs from the PINK section as they will help with the cleaning/removal and ongoing maintenance from the SPYWARE/MALWARE issues that cause so many problems and slowdowns.

Hope this helps,

Sincerely

MIke Dacre
