outlook 2007 backup not in file menu

[kayfam]

i am running outlook 2007 with SP2 under vista home premium. i downloaded and
ran pfbackup.exe and it seems to indicate a successful install but there is
no backup command in my file menu. i did Start>Run>....office12...outbak.dll
but the system asks me what program to open the file with and i have no idea.
Second, i look into Advance Options under the Other tab in Tools>Options and
there is no Com Add-Ins there to click on. I can't find an Outlook Backup
Addin anywhere, in fact. So i'm lost on how to proceed so i can create
Outlook backup files. Can any kind person help? Thank you,

You find COM add-ins under Tools->Trust Center.
