Personal folders desappeared

Guest

When i try to open Outlook XP, the message is: "It's not possible to show the
folder. Microsoft Outlook could not access the location of the specified
folder. The file C:\Documents and Settings\vitor\Definições
locais\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst is not a personal
folder's file." (in portuguese). I have access to Hotmail, but not to other
accounts I use to open in "Outlook today - [personal folders]". When I click
the plus sign it shows the message above. I'm running XP SP2, Outlook XP. I
tried to run scanpst.exe, and nothing. Also tried "detect and repair". The
strange thing is that the other user's still have their normal Outlook.
Anyone can help? I would be very grateful.

Have you tried a new mail profile?
