Default repair

Did you have your address book before you ran the repair tool? If so, why did
you run the repair?

This may sound like closing the gate after the horse is already out of the
barn, but always make a backup copy of the file(s) before attempting any
utility.

Default repair

Sometimes detect and repair will create a new Outlook Profile with a new
(blank) Outlook Data File (PST file). However, your original PST file is
still there and perfectly intact. Just search for PST files on your hard
drive (enable the search to include hidden files) and open each in Outlook
until you find your data.
