Microsoft Outlook Recovery - Outlook Pst Corrupt After Re-attaching

Your Outlook Personal Folders in your old account or profile will not be automatically transferred with your online folders

. This is for the reason that .pst files sit locally on your computer and not on your mail server. To access and use the old .pst file, you must re-attach or import it in your new account or profile. If you are currently looking for a profile change to create a new account, make sure you backup the original .pst file. To do so, you need to locate the file and backup it at a safe location. You should also ensure that backup process is not interrupted and Outlook remains closed when you copy the file. At times, when the backup doesn't complete successfully, it can result into PST file corruption. Such errors cause issues when you try to re-attach the file. However, you can try repairing such corrupted .pst files using Outlook Inbox Repair Tool (Scanpst.exe) or by running PST Recovery tools.

For example, you can consider the below scenario:

1-You backup the .pst file

2-You clean the Outlook profile to solve some email related issues or to change to new account settings.

3-You re-attach the old .pst file in this new profile.

4-When you try to open Outlook to access the file contents, Outlook prompts to enter the PST password. This occurs when no PST password has been set before. Alternatively, you might also receive some errors when trying to open Outlook.

Cause

The attached .pst file is corrupted. This can occur due to compatibility issues, disrupted backup process, media errors and similar other causes.

Solution

You should try these solutions to solve the given problem:

1-To repair the corrupted .pst file, you should run Outlook built-in tool-Scanpst.exe that can fix most of the issues associated with a damaged .pst file. Make sure you backup the file before attempting to repair using Scanpst.exe

2-If you can open the file, try importing its contents to the new .pst file.

3-Try to copy and open the file to another computer.

4-If all the above measures fail, you should use a Microsoft Outlook Recovery product to repair and restore a corrupted .pst file. PST Recovery tools are highly competent products that use powerful scanning algorithms to repair a corrupted Outlook data file.

Stellar Phoenix Outlook PST Repair is a comprehensive application that uses high-end scanning algorithms to repair a corrupted Outlook PST file.
