I entered the filename as follows:
C:\users\Maeleatha\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook, exactly the way I
found it. When I enter it, (because when I browse, I can not find the file
in the directory. I am not an idiot, I can manage small issues, like finding
where a file is stored, but let's save that for a later discussion. So, the
filename gets entered and when I click scan, it says that the file does not
exist, and to enter in a valid filename. What am I doing wrong?????? Is the
file totally corrupted and unrecoverable?
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What you're doing wrong is you're leaving off the ".pst:" at the end.
