I see a Backup file (Office Data File) and when I go to it, it says "You are
attemping to open a file of type (Office Data File (.pst). These files are
used by the operating system and by various programs. Editing or modifying
them could damage your system. If you still want toopen the file, click Open
With, otherwise click cancel.
So - are my pst files in there? I cannot see them - should I put the entire
backup in My Documents:? If I cannot open them, then what is the point
because I cannot locate any contacts I have lost!

WHile the location is known, you need to enable viewing hidden files/folders
to actually see the .pst file.
