OST files wil not backup using VSS under any circunston (outlook open or closed), per MS design. I want to save the ost file for the same reason I save pst files, e.g., in the event that I reinstall...

Et Voila, That does it. What I am let curiuous about is why I need the hex values to work "the magic", as the text string definitly does not.


Thanks 10^6 to all.

I don't understand yourr instructions (it's me not you). If you are suggesting I use regedit to modiy the relevant key I can already do that. What I am hoping for is a simple solution that I can...

OST files are by Microsoft default unable to be backed up using many backup software without turning off the default by adding 1.

Well, the good news is that from your comment the file is formatted properly. The bad new is that even when I run it from the desktop (on a Virtual Machine to test), nothing happens, i.e., the reg...

I have saved the following to a file named "Enable OST Backup.reg". The change from the default reg value is noted in red. I run the file, the message indicated "change...

A great tut. thanks.

I'm wonder your thoughts. As ZBook previously noted I do not have a recovery partition (I have no idea of how that happened); so I am wondering if you think that I will be...

I think where I am is to perform a new installation more carefully executed (with a recovery partition, though I did not delete the one that was "supposed to be there). This will take a bit of time...

Tried this (even though a new account did not fix the problem). But as one might suspect, neither did resetting the account.

Sorry but why are you suggesting I do this. Will it help repair my installation?

Nope, No backup images.

Not this either. Everything is set to "This PC (C:)"

I'll give changing the drive to 0 a try, (when my wife isn't working on her computer) and report back. The confusing part to me is why I was able to install software to the proper location (the C:\...

But wouldn't that confuse the computer boot sequence. As it stands, Disk 1 is booting (drive C;\), It will be tricky if I change cables. Or am I wrong?

As the title says new applications installed in a new installation of Windows 10 are installing in a drive other than the C:\ drive. This is new. All was working until about 2 weeks after I turned...
