Default How do I reset/restore all Outlook 2003 settings and folders?

Hello everyone. I've been trying for the last long while to restore all my
Outlook 2003 folders and files and settings to their original, default
settings, as if it were a new installation. The program is running on a
standalone computer, and I'm the only user and account on the computer.

I've deleted the .pst file, which only resulted in the loss of my contacts,
not the mail folders or their contents. I've read up on switches and tried
them too, but they don't change anything, not even the /firstrun switch. At
this point, I don't know what's going on. I do know from reading online that
other people have had this problem, and they said that even deleting Office
and reinstalling it didn't work, as there were registry files that appeared
to retain data.

Thank you in advance for your help.
