How can I find the Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\ so I don't have to run a search? 2: My purpose in finding it was for backup purposes. So I ended up doing a Copy/ Paste from my Search to my external backup. It seems to have worked, but when I try to open the .pst file, I get a message that Windows can't open the file. I wanted to open it in the backup to make sure I could access the Contact list. Any help would be appreciated That folder is a hidden folder. It does not change. The easiest way to get to it is to paste that string into any address bar in your system. You have to open that file in Outlook. File - Open - Outlook Data File.
