UAC & PST

PST files will not open in Vista w/ UAC on. Turning off UAC works great. I
have ownership of the file and administrator rights to the PC but still
doesn't work with UAC.

What is the ACL on the PST file? Most likely it has Administrators in it, not
your user account.

Are you talking about Outlook files? What version of Outlook? I have used
both Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 with no problems.

Experienced the problem in two seperate installs. 2007 Pro. and 2007 Pro.
Plus.
The PST was created in Outlook 2003. No problem will newly created PST's.
Just ones copied over.

Did you try importing it instead of opening it?

With UAC on....older PST versions cannot be imported successfully.
