IS there a way to recover the Outlook mailbox.pst file from Documents and Setting folder if my Win2K profile was deleted? Assuming that there is no system backup!
 
You should be able to re-install your profile, and then import your mailbox.pst file. I would make a copy of the pst file first before hand though.

Hope this helps... mot98..[peace]

Here are a couple of ways you can handle this:
1.) Rename the old Outlook pst file and then get Outlook working again and then import from this renamed pst file to the new Outlook files.

2.) Rename the old Outlook pst file and then get Outlook working again and then delete the current pst files and rename the old pst file to this new name. I use this method to sync my home PC with my office PC all the time.
