OS reload and lost emails

G

Guest

Changed Hard drives. WD software mirrored the old to the new. Windows had a
problem with the mirrored OS so I reloaded it, (it was due anyway). I do not
have an upgrade disk, only a full install so the old OS install was deleated
on the new drive as were all the "links" to the installed programs that are
internal to the OS.
I had many emails saved in the old install of outlook on the old drive but I
can't find them. Where did they go and/or what are the files names to move
to the new drive so I may have access to these lost emails. I am in the
middle of a dispute and sure could use those old emails. All help is
appreciated. Email address is (e-mail address removed) Thank you all for
your time.

The hidden files pick was the trick. Had done that search before and got
butkis. Thank you so very much.
