Recover deleted Outlook nk2 file from a removed Outlook 2007 profile
Outlook 2007 Profile (Outlook) became corrupted and wouldn't allow the Outlook window to open. So I removed the profile and created a new one (Default Outlook). Outlook works fine now, but the 1,000 or so autocomplete contacts that were stored in the NK2 file disappeared. I can find an NK2 file which is named Outlook.NK2 and is about 900 K.
1. Shouldn't the NK2 file have the same name as the profile name?
2. How do I get the old NK2 file functioning with the new Profile

You can read the file and see what is in it and then import into the live nk2 file or replace the new nk2 file. The 900k file sounds about right for 1000 addresses.
