    I just reinstalled Windows 7 and it moved all my files to a folder called Windows.old.
    I reinstalled Outlook and copied back my AppData > Local > Microsoft > Outlook folder, but when I launch Outloo, there is nothing! What do I need to do?!

    Create and use .pst data files in different versions of Outlook - Outlook - Microsoft Office

    If you are using outlook 2007 did you have the option to create a backup file within the program? If so there S/B a .pst file somewhere in the directory structure you mentioned.
    1.On the File menu, point to Open, and then click Outlook Data File.

    Also when I install Oulook 2007 I always install this:
    Download details: Outlook 2007/2003/2002 Add-in: Personal Folders Backup
    so I can easily backup the PSt file from within the program.
