Pst files can get damaged anytime that affect you and your business badly. So Outlook provides a free utility to repair the pst file corruption called the Scanpst. Unfortunately sometimes this inbox repair tool does not recognize the pst files and you may encounter the following error messages while attempting to repair the corrupted pst files such as:
- “An unexpected error prevented access to this file. Use ScanDisk to check the disk for errors, and then try using the Inbox Repair tool again.”
- “The PST file fixed by Inbox Repair Tool (Scanpst) is empty or does not contain the required items”
- “The Inbox Repair Tool does not recognize the file xxxx.pst”
