This is a tool that can help recover corrupted/damaged/inaccessible Outlook files.
Microsoft Outlook uses PST and OST files to store users’ data. These include not only email messages with attachments but also contacts, notes, tasks, calendar entries and other information. These PST and OST files will grow over time, naturally. But, there is a well known problem with Outlook that as PST and OST files grow the application slows down and becomes error prone. Besides, many things can go wrong that can corrupt the data. When the file grows to 2 GB size, the Outlook becomes quite unstable. Corruptions can be due to a power failure, a virus attack or a hard drive crash. In personal use one tends to have a lot of useful data stored inside, corporate users have much more data inside the tool. In case of problems, it becomes necessary that we can recover these precious pieces of data from the Outlook. This software is one such tool. It guides the user via its built in wizard through the recovery process.
The process is extremely simple and anyone with minimal computer familiarity will be able to run the program. All you need to do is set a couple of parameters and the Outlook Recovery Wizard will analyze the contents of the PST or OST target files. It looks for headers and signatures marking recoverable Outlook user’s data. The utility will then attempt to match the indexes and the located items. The results are listed on the interface for the user to decide if the results are satisfactory. When instructed to do so, the tool will save the restored data into the output PST file. This is a good and handy tool for the functions discussed above.
