MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / September 2005Outlook 2000 lost contact list
About a month ago my computer crashed and I needed to reinstall Windows and Office. I have been able to retrive all of my old documents except for my Outlook contact list and my old Outlook emails. ANy help would be appreciated. They are stored in a file with a pst extension, this can be opened in Outlook via the File || Open command, note this file could also be hidden and you need to turn on show hidden files and folders from the View menu of Folder Options in the Control Panel. > About a month ago my computer crashed and I needed to reinstall Windows > and > Office.

Ok so I looked for them and still could not find them. Sho hidden files was already selected. Do you have any other ideas to where it might be hidden. Maybe it is in another file besides the designated for outlook. > They are stored in a file with a pst extension, this can be opened in > Outlook via the File || Open command, note this file could also be hidden [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Outlook contact list and my old Outlook emails.

All the Outlook items like emails and contacts are stored within the pst file, the location for the pst file is typically in your user profile under Document and Settings, if you are using Search in Windows XP you need to go into the Advanced Options of search and check "Search hidden files and folders". Here is a listing of typical locations http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm > Ok so I looked for them and still could not find them.
