MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / June 2006outlook express contacts and personal folders
I reloaded XP (and Outlook Express) on my PC. I have since lost all my locally stored folders (and contacts). Is there anyway that they can be recovered? Are they backed up anywhere when XP is reinstalled? Thanks Graham  Signaturegraham "Reloaded?" What does that mean? Unless you reformatted your hard drive, your Outlook data should be quite intact. The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored. Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010771141033.aspx SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] >I reloaded XP (and Outlook Express) on my PC.

I thought he meant Office XP so he was also using Outlook. Apparently not. Wrong place. Graham, post more clearly next time.
