In MS Outlook, OST files are Offline Folder files that are exact replicas of your data stored on Exchange Server. An OST folder allows the user to access Outlook data in offline mode and it is very important for an OST file to synchronize with mailbox on Exchange Server. But at times, OST file also gets corrupted due to which, user is unable to access Outlook data. In such cases, you can use OST to PST converter software to recover your data from corrupt OST file.
I work as admin manager in a tech support company and use Outlook because of company policies. One day, I was sending an important e-mail to my team members and suddenly I received an error message. The error message was similar to the following message:
“AppName: Outlook.exe
AppVer: 14.0.4760.1000
ModName: Kernelbase.dll
ModVer: 6.1.7600.16385
Offset: 0003194b”
After receiving this error message, I was unable to access any of the Outlook items. As I was not aware of this error message so I called up the IT department but that day was a week off and none of the technical support staff was available. After trying a few more options, I started searching for a resolution to this issue and found that this error message occurs if the OST file gets corrupt. However, there are many reasons for corruption of OST file but the common reason is virus infection.
Viruses are malware content that enter into your computer without your knowledge and
infect the files in order to make them completely inaccessible. To confirm this, I performed a scan using antivirus software and the scan results showed that my system is infected with Trojan virus. I removed the entire virus and infected files by scanning my computer with antivirus software but the OST file was still corrupt. Then I called up one of my friends and he told me that I can easily fix this issue by converting the OST file into PST format and then I will be able to access my Outlook data. I started searching for such software on the Internet and found a list of popular software. I tried some of them and selected Stellar Phoenix Convert OST to PST software that allows you to repair and recover data from corrupt OST files and convert it into PST format.
Stellar Phoenix Convert OST to PST allows you to save the converted data into EML and MSG format. Moreover, this software previews all the data before actually starting the Outlook OST recovery process.
