How to recover Outlook Calendar and Contacts
In the event of a computer crash, where does Outlook keep its files for Calendar and Contacts. We are a Lotus Notes shop, however, some users have used Outlook for calendaring. I've looked for a .PST file, but no luck.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
The default locations are
In Windows XP, PST file is located in C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder.
In Windows Vista, PST file is located in C:\Users\<username>\AppDat
It is a hidden file, so you have to unhide hidden files. Open Windows Explorer folder and select Tools > Folders Options > View. Check "Show hidden files and folders". Click OK.
But the PST can be anywhere. After unhidden hidden files, do a Windows Search for *.pst
Hope this helps!
