Windows 7 backup the .pst file

I am using windows 7 backup and restore files from backup on a portable drive external usb. When I look in the files*.zip of backup, I don't find my local Outlook .pst file. Backup and restore tell me that this file was skipped. Why this file should be excluded from the backup? What is the size of the 5 GB .pst file?

You need to do a small amount of work at home in order to determine the current settings on your machine. If you let Windows choose what should be saved and then the user AppData folder is included in the backup:
Let Windows choose

If you let Windows choose what is backed up, the following items are included in your backup:

Data files that are saved in libraries, on the desktop and by default to the Windows folders for all people with a user account on the computer.

Notes

  • Only local files in libraries are included in the backup. If you have files in a library that are saved on a drive located on a different computer on a network, on the Internet, on the same drive that you are saving the backup on, or on a drive that is not formatted using the NTFS file system, they are not included in the backup.

  • The default Windows folders include AppData, Contacts, desktop, downloads, Favorites, links, saved parties and searches.

If you have made your choice, then you go and do control the folders that you have included in your choice:

Since there is no brand graduation against my AppData folder, it will not be saved.

    Hi jamesgillwn,

    1. when exactly you get this error message?
    2. what disc do you use to reinstall?
    3. What is the exact error that appears when you try to start?
    4. at what point of the installation you get the error message?

    After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

    First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

    To check if the disk is wrong, you will need to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard drive and try to install using that.

    Try the steps from the following link:

  • Windows Live Mail - Import .pst file messages

    Hello, I recently bought a new computer that is running Windows 7.  My e-mail program is Windows Live Mail.

    My old computer has Windows XP, and I served my Outlook e-mail program.

    I saved all my e-mail messages from Outlook (old computer) to a "PST" on an external hard drive, before wiping my old hard drive clean.

    I need to help the transfer (or extraction) my messages in my file .pst in Windows Live Mail (new computer).

    So, to summarize:
    1. old Outlook emails stored in a .pst file in an external hard drive
    2. new computer running Windows 7, and the e-mail program is Windows Live Mail
    3. I want to transfer my old emails (stored in the .pst file) into my new computer.

    How can I accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance.

    By downloading and installing the trial version of Office 2007, add the PST to the mail profile, and then import in WLM.

    BTW, if you have used the 'export' function in Outlook on your old machine, then you may well have problems with pst file that results. Unless you connect to Exchange Server, your data Outlook WERE already in a pst file. If you find my answer helpful, please click the button "Vote as helpful"! Thank you! My Blog

  • Get the Error Message When you try to reinstall Vista: Windows cannot open the required file: E:\Sources\install.wim

    I'm trying to reinstall windows vista for the following reasons:

    1. I have SQL Server 2008 installed on my computer.  I deleted some files a long time ago and it screwed something and I couldn't reinstall.
    2. I had partitioned my hard drive for vista half and half SuSE and I deleted who and when I did, I think I deleted another partition - my recovery partition (E:\?).
    3. I need to clean my laptop.

    When I try to start the installation of a disk and I put in my product key, I get the following error:

    Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\install.wim.  The file does not exist.  Make suure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.  Error code: 0 x 80070002.

    Let me know if you have any ideas how I can fix it.  My next step was to recreate this E directory and download the install.wim file and re start the installation.  I could not find the file install.wim well.

    Hi Rob,

    I checked the link you provided.  What you downloaded was just the Vista recovery environment.  You cannot actually re - install Vista with that and if you blew your recovery partition unfortunately you may be out of luck.  You blew your partition containing Vista runs so the SFC will be of no help either.  I wish I had better news for you, but I don't see any way o get on without a Vista DVD.  I have good news for you if.  When you get your HP drive if you have problems with the installation, we will be able to help you with that.

    Take care and let us know if you need assistance when the disc arrives. Locutys of Borg

    It would seem that the backup uses a master list to determine which files should be saved and where are these files.

  • Problem with Windows Explorer and the recorded files

    When I save files from the internet and then open the folder with Windows Explorer in the backed up files, I find that WE consider not save them on my hard drive "change" more. I know it's strange, but I tend to retain files roughly in the order that I saved them, rather than by the name of the file or anything else. So now to manually change the files in a certain way, then save them to get them organized as I want. Of course, this can become very painful and long if I have a lot of files to organize this way. My question is: How can I get Windows to consider saving a file on my HDD as change? I use Firefox and updated recently, which may be the cause of the problem.

    Hi Flingle,

    Were you able to save and access files correctly before you update Firefox?

    You can create a new folder & try to download the file inside of Internet Explorer & check if the problem persists.

    Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

  • Compatible Windows Vista backup the failed 0x80070005: access is denied

    I am more able to backup my PC.  It fails with a 0 x 80070005 (access) refused.  I carefully watched the backup trying to glean what file fails when it tries to read it for the backup.  It fails on a file on the C: drive, but it happens too fast.  I can't determine the file name and THE EVENT LOG IS NOT THE NAME OF THE LOG FILE.  I have no idea how to solve this problem. My last successful backup was dec 2010.

    It would be a great start to save the file whose access is denied when the backup fails.  then we can proceed.

    RE: iTunes and WMP - MusicBridge

    Found this on the web. I can't vouch for it. Use it at your own risk.

    Excerpt:
    iTunes is not compatible with Windows Media Player. iTunes is - like Apple-very protective of any product and does not like to share. So, you have to force off iTunes and WMP.

    To do this, you can use this sloppy program: MusicBridge.
    The description of its creator:
    MusicBridge allows people who use both iTunes and WMP on the same machine to keep their libraries in sync. MusicBridge offers a variety of synchronization options so that you can manage your collection of music in the media player, or both. MusicBridge duplicates of meta-data between Windows Media Player and iTunes, it does not copy the physical files between applications.

    Version 2.0.1 is a bug fixing release.

    Best thing: it's free.

    courtesy of musiclover101:
    convert the songs in your iTunes library to a format that Windows Media Player can understand

    You can convert the songs in your iTunes library to a format of Windows Media Player can understand - (I tend to use mp3). This can be done inside of iTunes itself. If the songs in your iTunes library were purchased in the iStore and were purchased in the plus version (indicated by a small sign above the price of a song +), then they are DRM free, so they can be converted easily. However, if the songs were not purchased in the format more, you can convert them for 30 cents each. I highly recommend that you do as the plus version of songs are premium quality - and since they are DRM free, you can use them in almost all applications and you can burn them to CD and play almost anywhere. All the songs on the iTunes store are now version more, so you don't have to worry about searching for them in the future.
    To convert songs to Windows Media Player can understand, open iTunes, and then do the following:
    1. click Edit, preferences, and go to the general tab
    2. click on the button "import settings".
    3. change the "import using" at "MP3 encoder".
    4. click OK and go back to your music library
    5. choose the list view and select the first piece of your library
    6. scroll all the way to the last song in your library
    7. press the button SHIFT key, then click the last song to select all the songs in your library
    8. click on "Advanced" and then "Create MP3 Version."
    9. your songs should start to convert and according to how many songs do you have in your library, this could take some time
    10. open Windows Media Player and press F3 or click file, add it to the library

    11. click on OK - Windows Media Player should start to search for songs on your computer and after that he finished the search, you should find the songs in your library in your Windows Media Player to iTunes library.

    NOTE: This method will not work unless you have purchased iTunes songs or if you have converted the songs iTunes more for each 30 c
