Accessing old emails from Outlook 2007 when downloading Windows 7

Asked By JayT
21-Nov-09 03:11 AM
I cannot open outlook 2007 in my windows.old file after I downloaded windows
7 even after re-installing outlook 2007.  It gives me an error mesage that
says: outlook.exe - System error. "The program cannot start because
MSVCR80.dll is missing from your compter.  Try reinstalling the program to
fix this problem."

Is there anyway to access all my old email in my windows.old file?  Isn't
all my emails somewhere located on that file?

Configure Outlook
Locate the *.pst file in windows old (possibly named outlook.pst) copy it to
Documents folder, then within Outlook open that pst

Your email is a separate story. Do you still have the pst-file from before
you installed Windows 7?
Once you have reconfigured Outlook with your account settings, you can
connect to your pst-file via;
File-> Open-> Outlook Data File...
