Repair Outlook PST File
If you are unable to open your Personal Folders file (.pst) you can suspect that your .pst file is corrupted. You may use the Inbox Repair tool (Scanpst.exe) to repair errors in the .pst file. The Repair Outlook PST File tool scans only the .pst, not your mailbox on the server running MS Exchange. The method determines whether the file structure is intact. If it is not intact, it resets your file structure and rebuilds the headers.
Scanpst.exe is installed itself when you install Outlook. It is located at below location:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE12.
Repair Outlook PST File by using Scanpst.exe
1. Exit MS Outlook if it is running.
2. Double click on Scanpst.exe, located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE12.
3. Now Enter the name of the file you want to scan or click Browse to search for the file.
4. To specify the scan log options, click Options, and click the desire option.
5. Click Start.
6. If error founds after the scan is complete, you will be prompted to start the repair outlook pst file process to fix the error.
A backup file is created during this repair process. You can change the default name or location of this backup file.
7. Click Repair.
8. Open Outlook by using the profile that contains the file that you repaired.
9. On the Go menu, click Folder List.
In the Personal Folder List, you may see a folder named Recovered Personal Folders that contains your default Outlook folders or a Lost and Found folder. The recovered folders are usually empty, because this is a rebuilt file. The Lost and Found folder contains the items recovered by the Inbox Repair tool.
10. If you see a Recovered Personal Folders folder, you can create a new outlook file, and drag the items into the new.pst file. Once you have finished moving all the items, you can remove the Recovered Personal Folders (.pst) file, including the Lost and Found folder, from your Outlook profile.
