I can't find my outlook messages anywhere in windows.old! I checked the dir:
drive:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and no pst. files were there. Any ideas? I dont have a backup! |

google around a bit. "lionel" wrote in message ... Yes, I searched all drive for *.pst ... No matches. How is it Vista saved everything but my mail in windows.old . That makes no sense.
