Which folder does MS Outlook belong in?

[Guest]

I re-imaged my computer today. I saved my Outlook contacts and email to a
disk. When loading the disk to the re-imaged computer, I need to know what
folder to save the old data to. Can anyone help? Now when I open Outlook it
gives me a message saying that it cannot find the .pst folder.

The Folder does not matter. In fact you should not put the data file in the
default folder. That will not connect it to Outlook and will more likely
corrupt your Outlook profile.
Put it somewhere else and then connect Outlook to it. Method depends on your
version which you neglected to post.
