During the installation of the updates post Windows 2000 Service Pack 4,
Outlook XP by the user: a contact from the address book wa opened. The card
has been closed without modification. Ended the modernizations it has been
restarted the computer, then has been launch the 05-054 patch of Internet
Explorer. After a new restart, opening Microsoft Outlook, the system says
PST was deleted!



Any helps ?

Is the PST simply renamed (possibly extension changed) or sitting in the
Recycle Bin?

I'd be surprised if it says the PST was deleted. What is the EXACT text of
the mesage?

At Outlook Startup

Impossible find the <user settings path /Outlook.PST>

I don't see the word "deleted" in there anywhere. Open your Mail applet in
Control Panel and look at the path where Outlook is trying to find the PST
and see if it is correct. Enable showing hidden files and folders and
search your hard drive for files ending in ".pst". Use an undelete program
so see it it was actually deleted. Was the PST on a local drive or on a
network drive?
