operating System?

Does this also hapen after you restart the PC. Make sure the file property
isn't set to "read only" in Explorer. If this is not the case try running
scanpst.exe against it and see if it comes up with anything.

Hope this helps!

I am having the same problem. PST files are stored in the
home drives (network share) of my users. I have had to
copy the pst file in question, rename the old pst file and
then rename the copied pst file to the original name.
Then the error message does not return. However, within a
week or so the error message returns.

I can't figure out why this is happening.

This happens even after the PC is rebooted. Also where is
the scanpst utility located?

Thanks
Jim

Please note that storing pst-files on a networkshare is not
recommended/supported by Microsoft.

The location of scanpst.exe;
D:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\<LOCALID>
