Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010
I had a harddrive fail so I got a new harddrive and Windows 7 Pro too because
the machine is OEM. I had just backed up Outlook so I had a fairly recent PST file. But now, when I try to import it, I get an error saying I don't have the rights to access the file? Huh, I created it!!! So I thought well maybe I have to log in as Admin bit couldn't see how to do it. THIS IS REALLY SERIOUS AS I NEED THAT FOR MY BUSINESS!!! How do I get access to that file??? Thanks very much! |

Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010
So why are you using a beta version for your business?
OEM is of no consequence How did you backup outlook and to what? Locate the pst in your Documents folder, ensure any read only flag is off. Within Outlook open the data file.

Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010
Why not? I can still access online if I have a conplete failure, I just
prefer to use OL. I backed it up in Outlook. I tried to change the attributes of the file from the command prompt but it says I don't have permission. OEM is of consequence because I don't have disks for the OS and that's part of the reason I bought a new HD and W7. "DL" wrote: So why are you using a beta version for your business?

Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010
If you can access online what was the purpose of this useless statement?

Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010
As a former product tester I thought you would've remembered your first
lesson in Testing 101. I'll refresh your brain-dead brain. NEVER INSTALL BETA SOFTWARE ON A MAIN MACHINE!!!

Can't access PST file with Outlook 2010 - **I found the answer
For anyone that cares.
I removed the read attribute from the file by going to the command line (Run - cmd [RETURN] now in the command window (DOS prompt) enter: attrib -r filename.pst and press [RETURN]. Type exit to close the window. I was then able to import the PST file and all is good. "drumz" wrote: I had a harddrive fail so I got a new harddrive and Windows 7 Pro too because the machine is OEM.
