Hi
Everyone i have one case Overwritten .pst file user by mistake over write around 5GB file to 600Mb file with same name is it possible to Recover it?

is there any special software for .pst Recovery.

What is overwritten is overwritten . Period. You can manually (but it's a PITA) condense fragments of data into another valid Outlook file containing what you can save from the disk. It's data reconstruction and it cannot be "automated" as you wish. Don't forget .PST files are complex.

Even if you manage to recovery part of the oirignal 5gb file (which wierd because i though .pst are split to 2gb files) there is a very good program to read partial .pst databases by ontrack.

But like BlackSt said... its almost impossible even if you know what todo.

Clarification : it is NOT impossible, it is NOT POSSIBLE as automated process "click and go" style. That's why I ask $$$ to do it.
