I recently re-formatted the hard drive on my personal computer at home. I
thought I had backed up the contact information correctly in a .pst file. I
suspect I might have made a mistake in doing so. Apparently, I was supposed
to copy both the Outlook.pst and Archive.pst files. Since I only have one
file (now named Outlook Backup), I suspect I only copied the Outlook.pst
file. Would any of you know how I can recover my contact information?
 
Within Outlook, File>Open>Data File.....browse to the backup (I assume your
file is named
outlook Backup.pst)
 
Since Contacts are never archived, why do you think they would be in your
Archive file?
