Microsoft Outlook is a popular personal information manager (PIM) that helps you to keep track of meetings, appointments, emails and contacts. MS Outlook is also called as “Email Software” because you can easily communicate throughout the office or over internet by sending and receiving emails. MS Outlook is able to sort out unwanted or junk emails, which help you to manage annoying spam emails. You can set up more than one email account. When you set up your mail account, Outlook creates a file called PST (Personal Storage Table) file, where it stores all data like emails, calendar entries, contacts, tasks, notes etc. Sometimes, Outlook may encounter unexpected error that may close Outlook abnormally resulting in PST file corruption. You can repair such corrupted PST file using inbuilt inbox repair tool called as scanpst.exe.
Generally, PST files are stored on your computer’s hard drive. Corrupted file system of hard drive may also corrupt PST file resulting in loss of emails. File system manages and organizes the files. File system also stores allocation information of stored files. File system may get corrupted due to many reasons like virus attack, improper system shutdown, power surge problems etc. When you try to open PST file, which is corrupted then you may come across error message like “filename.pst cannot be accessed”.
