Hey everyone,

I decided to reformat my computer today (too much junk). I wanted to keep my emails so I burned Outlook.pst and Archive.pst to a disk. However, I forgot to disable my password in Outlook, so it says "... You do not have permission required to access file D:\Outlook.pst (D is my DVD/CD drive). I am using File>Open>Outlook Data File and I also used File>Import and Export. Both gave me the same result.

Does anyone have any thoughts? I'd really like to get all my old emails back. Perhaps there's a bit of freeware I can use? Any help will be well appreciated.

Thanks, TJ
