| 1307617 | 2012-10-19 06:37:00 | Hi forum Sometime this afternoon I manage to lose one of my personal folders in Outlook - it just isn't there anymore all of a sudden. I found out when I tried to shift something into it from my "inbox". Maybe the cat walked on the keyboard while I wasn't looking. Does anyone know what I might try to get the folder back? I have a back-up (on a full disk image) but it doesn't have the most recent stuff I would have shifted into that folder. I also don't know how to retrieve one single file from a disk image (can it be done?) Please can anyone suggest anything I might try? |

If you use 'Acronis' you can 'mount' the image as a drive and copy any file in it. |

| 1307620 | 2012-10-19 07:28:00 | Hi zqwerty Operating system is Windows 7 Professional. Tried the *.pst search and the other 2 folders did show up - not the one that is missing (Personal Folders(1).pst). |

| 1307621 | 2012-10-19 07:32:00 | Depends what image it is. If you use 'Acronis' you can 'mount' the image as a drive and copy any file in it. The image was made using Microsoft help "How to create a disk image". |

| 1307623 | 2012-10-19 07:49:00 | Is there anyone I can take the disk image to, or just get a copy of Acronis? Thanks for helping. |

| 1307624 | 2012-10-19 07:51:00 | If you made it in windows Acronis won't read it, just do whats in the link Wainuitech posted | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1307625 | 2012-10-19 08:33:00 | The backup procedure won't recognise the system image file - it is showing up on the directory of the drive but the commands above don't seem to work with it.... | ellpow (16400) | ||
| 1307626 | 2012-10-19 09:58:00 | I think I will have to do a system image restore and take a copy of the file I am after. So if I take another system image now, then restore the earlier system image, take a copy of the file I need, then re-write the new system image back - that should do it! | ellpow (16400) | ||
