I moved my PST file by the Cut paste method in Outlook 2010, Now I am not able to access that. Then I repaired the file by using ScanPST.exe but it says ‘.pst file is not valid’

What I should do now?

Hi Gregory Rankin,


Sometimes, ScanPST.exe fails to reconstruct damaged blocks of a PST file.
As an alternative solution, you can create new Outlook profile. Know about the predefined steps, mentioned below:


·         Start>Control Panel> Mails> Data Files>Give a name to it and click Ok
·         Select the newly created PST file as default, Check Outlook if this helps



In case, this method also doesn’t work then you can use professional tool like Stellar Phoenix Outlook PST Repair.
