Hi,

I'm want to detect which staff have PST files, and where they are saved.
Personal folders are optional for staff and we ask that they create them on a
network share for backup reasons.

However, I know from experience that not all staff have followed our guide
correctly and just have their PST sitting in the default location
(C:\documents and settings\user\etc\etc).

Does this PST path show in the registry? If so I would like to write a
little script to export the key so I can check all the PST paths. I'm fine
with the script but need to know what key to export. I've searched and looked
all over but can't find it. Or does it save it in one of the Outlook profile
files (.srs, .nk2 etc)

Thanks

M
 
Profiles are at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\[profile name]

These values are in subkeys of the profile:
001f3006 - Tells you if it's a personal folder
001f6700 - This value is the path
