So things are working for you now again or not? Your reply is a little bit
confusing that way ;-)

In general the fix is to click the OK button until it doesn't prompt you
anymore and you get access to Outlook (usually 3 times per pst-file). That
is of course when there really isn't a password on the pst-file.

Just from my reference;
Did you perhaps recently upgraded your Outlook version or applied a
specific update regarding Outlook?
Which mail account type are you using?

Hi Diane,

that is correct. I did add a password to get back into outlook.

He's just pimping his product - it may or may not work for your
situation.

Your problem is that the pst thinks it has a password but you are pretty
sure you never passworded it, correct?

Hi,

When this happened I lost my current inbox and contact list. Will this
help recover them? Thanks,

Hi,

Even if you forget the password for the encrypted PST file, you can
still decrypt it by using Advanced Outlook Repair. Advanced Outlook
Repair can decrypt all the encrypted data and convert it into a new
PST file that doesn't require a password. You can visit
http://www.datanumen.com/aor/problem...k-password.htm to get more
detailed information.
http://www.datanumen.com/aor/ contains detailed information about
Advanced Outlook Repair.
And you can also download a free demo version at
