Re: Outlook 2007 Vista recovery of .PSt and contacts

The file you are looking for is (assuming you haven't changed any defaults):

C:\users\gibbonz\appdata\local\microsoft\outlook\outlook.pst

You seem to know your way around cmd, so I won't belabor you with step by step "type cd appdata", etc.

Even though the folder is hidden, you can still access it in the cmd prompt. In case you need to see hidden folders again, here's how: In the folder you know the thing is in, type "dir /ah". As I figure you know, "dir" will simply show all the folders and files you could see just by double-clicking on the folder. The "/ah" tells it to show all hidden folders and files. This will, however, only show the hidden ones. If you need to see everything, drop the "h" and just type "dir /a". This will show you everything, including system files, so be very careful.

Good luck.
