Need to locate .pst files

I cannot locate .pst files for the Personal Folders I had in my old Outlook
(2007) account. I tried to locate them through the Control Panel, but I can
only locate the archive folders, and cannot locate the folders from my old
account. I set up a new account 2 days ago because I was receiving an error
message when I tried to access my old account. Now I cannot find my old
account information.

Can you help?

Thank you,
Mandi Hawkins

Enable viewing hidden files and folders and then search for them.

In addition to what I said a moment ago, if you click File>Open>Outlook Data
File, chances are excellent that you'll find your old PST.
