I am getting embarrassed, so I'll just tell you that when I follow this instruction
to view them, open Outlook, go to the File menu, select Open, then Outlook Data File. Select your Archive.pst file, then click OK. The email folders you archived will now be listed in the Folder List on the left side of the Outlook window.
I find three folders, one called Outlook, one called Archived old email, one called archive, none with .pst, and none containing any old emails. I then did a Search of all files and folders for any file or folder containing all or part of the file name Archive.pst, and got "Search is complete, there are no results to display." I have in the past clicked Yes to the prompt about archiving, so I don't understand this, but my new plan is to carry on, being more disciplined about deleting.
Hey, I could print stuff out and put it in an actual manila folder! I could label it "archive.pst"! |
