Repair corrupt 2GB .pst files

In Outlook 2000 the .pst file size was limited to a 2 GB. If a .pst file goes beyond this size limit, .pst file becomes corrupt and retrieval of emails and data from this oversized .pst file becomes difficult. Inbox repair tool provided with Microsoft office suite is not sufficient in repairing oversized files. Running compact operation on an oversized file and running inbox repair tool may result in loss of important attributes.

To repair a .pst file corrupt due to 2gb size limit, use DD PST Repair an advanced Outlook Mail Recovery software, which can repair the .pst file and would create a healthy .pst file which can be imported back to Microsoft Outlook.

Outlook offers no integrated procedure to reduce a 2GB PST file. However, Microsoft provides a tool, PST2GB, which truncates the data between 30 to 50mb and the truncated data contains crucial data which is not recoverable. Hence we should avoid using such tools.

DD PST Repair doesn’t truncates the file, instead it creates a blank new .pst file and creates all those entries again and in this process all the junk entries and unwanted temporary data is left with the old .pst and user gets a new healthy .pst file. Before attempting anything we suggest that you should always take the backup of your corrupted .pst file and than run the demo version of DD PST Repair to confirm the chances of recovery.
