What do you do when you get the message "Properties for this information service must be defined prior to use?" I have three .pst files saved on a disk but can't use them becuase I have no clue what that message means.

I am installing the .pst files on a different computer with a different server address. Is that what they are referring to?

Copy each file to the hard drive. Right-click the copied file in Windows
Explorer and choose Properties. Clear the Read-only check box.
