Hello. I tried to remove some unused folders from the adress book. What i did was the following (my version is norwegian i translated the menu names):

Selected tools (5th from left), services (next to last one. Then a 'services' list appear.

I highligted the outlook adressbook and romoved it. Then i (by mistake) also selected personal folders and hit remove.

Is there a easy way to get i back? It didn't really delete the content???

Thanks a lot!

 
Click on FILE->IMPORT AND EXPORT and import your personal folders back into your Outlook environment.

 
Thanks for responding so fast! I also saw theres an option to add folders in the 'services' list. Then you specify a .pst file.

Wouldn't that be an easier way than importing the conent?
 
Yes, it would be an easier way. My suggestion just means that there is no worries about removing folders again, as the contents of the .pst file will be in your current mailbox folder (perhaps in a specific subfolder called "old data" or whatever).

I guess either would work fine.
