All goes well until the
synchronization of OST gets automatically done with the exchange
server but when the OST starts showing abrupt behavior such as no
synchronization even after the connection is set up or does not opens
up easily then it implies that OST has probably gone corrupt.
Sometimes the reason of OST file corruption is exchange server crash,
exchange server downtime, accidental user account deletion, database
corruption, virus intrusion, etc. but at other instances the
occurrence of errors notifies that something has went wrong.
Let us consider a real
life scenario where a user tries to open an OST file to access the
data items but due to security issues, was unable to do so. Upon
trying he encounters the following error:
Unable to open your default e-mail folder. The file
C:/Documents and Settings/User Name/Local Settings Application
DataMicrosoftOutlookoutlook.ost
cannot be accessed. You must connect to your MS Exchange Server at least once before you can use your offline folder file.
To get rid of this issue you can manually export this file to PST format and can try accessing it. To perform the steps by your own, follow the steps below:
- Launch the MS Outlook application
- Go to Tools Menu -> Account settings -> Email account -> More settings
- Now click on the Advanced tab and then select ‘Use cached Exchange Mode’ checkbox.
- Click Offline Folder File Settings and then locate the OST file by clicking on Browse button
- Start Outlook again.
- Now, click File -> Import and Export -> Export to a file -> Personal Folder File (.pst)
First and foremost, the software should be able to deliver the precise results and should be compatible with the MS Outlook and Windows versions which you are using. Secondly, it should perform the task quickly and should be able to recover multiple files simultaneously so as to save time. To analyze the worth of the software before purchase, you can download and try its free demo version. One such proficient tool which is available with a free demo is Kernel for OST to PST software. It is an efficacious tool that recovers the corrupt OST along with all its data items quite accurately. Also, it allows recovery and conversion of multiple OST files simultaneously.
