For an english system, it would most likely be at c:\Program Files\Common
Files\System\MSMAPI\1033

For my Outlook 2003 I can find it via Start - Programs - Microsoft
Office - Microsoft Office Tools - Inbox Repair Tool.

If you can't find it there, search your Program Files for SCANPST.EXE

For Office 2007 it is in the Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\ folder
For all the other versions see;

Use Roady's post because I took the path from a Windows XP/Office 2003
install and not Windows XP/Office 2007. To save you from finding his
response to you...

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\

And to answer the question, the "1033" can change depending on what language
your operating system/programs are purchased in. (e.g. Spanish, German,
Japanese, .etc)

Why do you want to use scanpst; did you get a message that told you to
run it? If so, it should have given you the name and path of the PST
file to scan.

You can also find your PST files in Control Panel | Mail - Data Files.

In Outlook I have received the following message---"Errors have been detected
in the file C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local settings\Application
data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst. Quit Outlook and all mail applications
and use the inbox repair tool (scanpst.exe) to diagnose and repair errors in
the file. For more information about the inbox repair tool, see help."

There you have the answer; the file to scan is
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst
