I just installed a new HD and did a clean install. I never willingly
installed any add-ins. I don't have any rules, published forms or
other hidden stuff that I know of. Proportionally, your difference
makes more sense than mine. Any ideas as to how I can find some of
the hidden stuff, or is there a way to export my Contacts, Calendar
etc..., create a new PST file, bring them back in then set up my
email accounts (just 2)?
You don't have a prayer of recovering the account information, since that's
kept in the active Windows registry and because you did a clean install, you
wiped out the old registry containing that information. Re-add your mail
accounts manually by creating a mail profile in Control Panel's Mail applet
and adding the accounts.
Forget, as well, that you even know the word "import". You have an existing
PST. Make the new PST in the Mail applet, set it as your delivery location,
then add the existing PST as a second data file. Start Outlook. Now, open
each folder in the old PST, select all the items in it with Ctrl-A, and
either Ctrl-click and drag the selection or click Edit>Copy to Folder,
specifying the corresponding folder in the new PST as the destination. For
the Calendar, you'll have to switch to a table view before Ctrl-A will
select all the items.
Once you're done copying, close the old PST by right-clicking its root and
choosing Close.
