Access Denied error when opening PST in Outlook 2010.

Outlook 2010 gives me an access denied error when trying to open a .PST email archive.

Here's a screenshot of the error: http://i45.tinypic.com/2hov42o.png

I am opening it by clicking File > Open > "Open an Outlook data file (.pst)".

The PST was copied over from another PC via USB thumb drive. We copied over 2 different PST's and both have the issue. I have made sure all the permissions are correct on the PST's.... all full control for the user with ownership. User is also a local admin on their PC. I have verified the attribute "Read only" was not checked. I have also created a new Outlook profile to test and that did not work either. Please help!

Thanks in advance,

Scott

I went ahead and recopied the PST items over and made sure Outlook was closed and the archives were not connected when doing it. This worked.

Thanks!
