I have a personal folder, which exceeded the size of 2 GB.
Now the file is unable to open, as it is saying that it
exceeded the size.

If anyone knows how to recover data, please inform me.


Regards
 
I'm very surprised you did not find this information in a search. The limit is 2 GB. The only way to recover it is to use a program that should have come with your Office installation CDs called SCANPST.exe. If you did a complete install, look for it on your PC; or try under Start-Programs-Office tools

Don't use scanpst.exe! You'll need another program for this to repair the
pst-file since it exceeded the 2GB limit;
