Hi Guys,

I have Outlook PST which badly corrupted after bad sectors, any chance of recovering the email? The PST was saved after bad sectors on the drive, i have tried all software available but no luck. Scanpst did not recognize the PST as Outlook file.

Does anyone know how to recover this type of problem? I suspect header file is corrupted.

Thank's

Hi Pepe, i have tried that and it does recognized the file but looping forwever, eventually the program crashes. Files size around 850Mbytes.

You can try this method.

Delete bytes 7 through 13 of the file, and then run scanpst.

It's not generally as effective as some mailbox recovery programs, but occasionally it does the job very well.
