Can you recover lost emails from a PST file

My POP Outlook would not open because it said the PST file was corrupt. I ran ScanPST over it and that allowed it to open but now I am missing the last three month of emails and calendar appointments.

Is there a way to retrieve these or are they part of the corruption in the PST file?

For your case, it may or may not possible to recover the lost emails.

A lot of Outlook MVPs also discussing how to recover emails from corrupt PST files on their own websites:

Third, there are many third-party Outlook recovery tools you can try, such as:

It provides a free demo so you can try to see if it works.


Good luck!
