Today, I am unable to open my archive pst file in outlook 2016. Yesterday, it was working totally well.
Can anyone help me to know the reason or solution for this issue?
Thanks, Victoriya! But these methods didn't work for me.
Here are a few solutions you can try out to overcome the “archived PST not opening” issue:
1. Check if you’re able to open the archived data file in a new Outlook profile
There might be issues with your current Outlook profile. To create a new Outlook profile, import the archive PST into this new profile and then try opening it.
2. Try opening any other archived PST files that you may have
If any other archived PST opens, it means the problem exists only in the current PST file and not in Outlook.
3. Repair Archived PST using ScanPST.exe
Microsoft’s inbuilt Inbox Repair Tool ScanPST.exe comes into play in situations exactly like this one. The utility is used to detect and fix minor corruptions within Outlook PST files and get Outlook up and running.
If the above given all methods will fail then you can try any third party professional tool like Stellar Repair for outlook, Anyrecover tool, Outlook repairtoolbox, etc.
