Hi
I always keep a backup of my Outlook .pst file just n case I need it...
Just doing a back up and notice that the files do not have any association linked... I am sure it used to show the Outlook icon but can't be sure... can anyone confirm this.. I did try to link to Outlook but is failed...
This is what I mean...
This is what I get when I try to associate it to Outlook... Which seems odd... unless it is because Outlook is open?
Mine have the Outlook association, I'm using the Office 2016 package rather than the Office 365 but should be same.
I would advise you use the installer (uninstaller - Change), to do a repair rather than manually setting the association as the Office associations are not standard
I have just gone into "set default apps" and there is nothing associated with the .pst file... so when I try to add it says nothing is installed, even though Outlook works perfect
Will try the repair option ...
Update.... Thank you for the suggestion... just did the quick repair and almost instant it seemed to have worked :)
