Problem Description: Yesterday (11/18) when I opened
Outlook, a small box popped up asking me if I wanted to
archive files that I haven't used for awhile and to empty
my Deleted folder. I clicked OK and for the next 1 to 2
hours, files were being archived. When done, I had lost
all my folders I had created in the Folder List along with
their contents.
I have used Microsoft Help and followed Article 196492 to
Import Personal Data and have my Address Book and Contacts
back, plus a partial Sent Items and two other personal
folders. When I follow the instructions for "Importing
Personal Folder Data" in Artical 196492, a small window
opens titled "Import - Archive Folders". It shows files
being transferred, but just stops, after it has
transferred the following files: Will & Patty Lewis
(personal), Sent Items, Inbox, Traffic Swarm (personal),
Contacts and Drafts. This process takes about 5 to 10
minutes, then just stops and the window closes.
I have a new file that was created yesterday titled
Archive. It's located at:
C:\WINDOWS\ApplicationData\Microsoft\Outlook\archive.pst
and that's the file I've been trying to Import.
What I need to know is, What do I do to restore all my
folders in my Folders List? I've trid to Open the Archive
file, but I can't seem to get it to open (not sure what
format to use.) I also Really need to Restore the
Calendar, as all my business appointments are in there!
Thanks in advance, for your quick responce to this!
