Lost Folder in Outlook 2010


I have never had such a problem so I probably cannot help you.

I assume that the list of datafiles is correct [In Outlook 2007 this is given in several places including File, Data file management] and that you have run ScanPST on each of the pst/ost files shown there.

Are there any references to the missing file in the ScanPST log [log settings are under Options in the ScanPST UI]?

In Outlook 2007, I can set the 'navigation pane' to 'Folder list' view so that I can manually look through every open file & folder to check their contents. If you can find it this way but not when searching then it would indicate a search problem rather than a pst file problem. I have not seen this but I'd run Office diagnostics [2007] & the Windows indexing troubleshooter if I did.
- Apparently, Office diagnostics itself does not exist in Office 2010. I understand that, for Office 2010, you'd need to go to Control panel, Progs & features then right-click on the Office 2010 entry so you could select Repair.
- I have also seen a suggestion that Office diagnostics might be in your Start menu but I don't know if that was correct or not.
- The Windows indexing troubleshooter is at Settings, Updates, Troubleshoot, Search & indexing

Sorry I could not help,
Best of luck,
Denis

 

Outlook 2010 will not work

Hi,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Do you get any error message while opening Outlook 2010?

Outlook 2010 is the compatible with windows 10. I suggest you to repair the Outlook 2010 from control panel and check if it works fine.

Thank You.

1 By 'navigation pane' I just meant the fairly narrow pane on the left-hand side of my Outlook window. It's the grey pane on the left in www.alphr.com/blogs/2009/11/19/microsoft-outlook-2010-screenshots - there should be a set of buttons at the bottom to select Folder list / Shortcuts / … Your comment "I have a folder list under the name of my pst" sounds like you have the folder list in front of you because that's how I would describe what it looks like.

2 Either in the Folder list or by looking in File, Data file management you can see which pst files you have open.

3 Perhaps you have set up auto-archiving to delete originals???? In my 2007 version this is set up in Outlook, Options, Other, AutoArchiving as well as individually for each folder in Folder list. I do not know where the settings are in Outlook 2010.

4 About "I have only run Scanpst on the pst file that shows the current date", I don't know what your other pst files are but you should be able to open each in turn to see if the missing file is in one of them. The only example I have of an older pst file is my Archive.pst file [I archive every 30 days but without deleting anything]. Every pst file that Outlook opens gets the current date-time set as its Date modified even if nothing gets written to it when it is open.

5 I mentioned search before. In Outlook 2007 search settings are in Outlook, Tools, Options, Preferences, Search options but it might have been moved in Outlook 2010. In Outlook 2016, they are in Outlook, …, Options, Search.
