Hello all, we've applied KB895395 to our environment to allow us to set the
ForceOSTPath reg key. However a side effect has been that on some PC's the patch has removed the ability to create PST files. When you go to File | New | Outlook Data File, the Types of Storage list is empty. We use Office 2003 SP1 on XPP SP1. We do not have the DisablePST reg key configured or present on the affected PC's. Out of curiosity I created it on one PC and set it to 0 but this didn't help either. This appears to be an issue with this patch, have found a few references to it on the net, has anyone come up with a solution? Would really appreciate any advice that can be given. |

It might be worthwhile to try applying SP2, which incorporates that patch. I haven't seen any other reports of your side effect.

Not really an option for our environment at this stage. We wont be applying
Office SP2 until Sept when we'll be upgrading the OS to SP2 as well. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: It might be worthwhile to try applying SP2, which incorporates that patch.

But if you apply it on a test basis to one machine, you'll know whether it will solve your problem.
