Multiple Personal Folder that DO NOT WORK - Registry keys

[schmiedk1]

Here is a great question for someone. I am using Microsoft Outlook 2003.
Somehow I ended up with 4 personal folders. I do not know how this happened.
Well, I recently bought a new hard drive and reinstalled Outlook. I had a
backup of the .pst file for everything in my inbox and subfolders which I
restored with no problem. The mistake I made was trying to copy the email
settings from the old hard drive using a registry key. I found a blog on a
site that talked about copying mail settings. It gave explicit instructions
about what registry keys to use and how to export them. Here is the website
where I got the insturctions...

So now I have 2 problems.... multiple personal folders and incorrect
registry settings.
Is there a way I can restore original registry settings for Outlook?

I cannot understand what you did, and how you conclude that you have
incorrect registry settings?

Did you install a new version of Windows on the new hard drive? Is this
where you moved the exported registry settings to?

Please explain in details what you did.

If you have multiple Personal Foders that are ghosts of a single personal
folder, then you have corrupted your mail Profile, use the mail applet in
the control panel to create a new profile, add the data file & configure
your accounts
