My outlook suddenly gave me the stern warning that I need to shutdown and scan my message boxes with ScanPST. I have a corrupted mailbox file, or files. It didn’t tell me which/where the mailbox file is and where the scanpst.exe or scanost.exe is located.
So to help me and others remember how to locate these files:
“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12″ is where ScanPst.exe and ScanOst.exe located. I think these two programs are merely links to some other core utilities. You can launch either one and it can scan both types of mailbox files (*.ost or *.pst).
“C:\Documents and Settings\
Wouldn’t it be great if Outlook simply launches this tool or provide this functionality as a right-click on the mailbox itself? We should ask Bill that question.
