Are you using Outlook in a stand-alone mode? (IE you are not in a corporate

find and make a copy of your pst file. That includes all your email,
calendar data, tasks and contacts.

And that's one of the best ways to corrupt your data. if you are not on

In Outlook go to File-Open-Outlook Data File and open the backed-up file.
Then either set that file as the default deliveryt location, or drag the
data you need to restore to the existing set of folders.
