Indexing Microsoft Personal Storage Tables (Offline PST)

The Personal Storage Tables (PST) category allows you to search emails, contacts and organizer content inside offline PST files. This option is useful when Microsoft Outlook® is not installed on computer or when some PST files are not mounted in Microsoft Outlook® .

NOTE: THIS OPTION IS ONLY AVAILIBLE IF THE MICROSOFT OUTLOOK EXTENSION IS ENABLED IN THE EXTENSIONS STORE.

To specify which PST elements to index:

• In the Tools menu, click Options...
• Select the Emails & Organizer tab.
• Click on the Add PST file button and select an offline PST in the opened window.
• Specify which mailbox, contact, tasks, notes or calendar folders you want to index by selecting the corresponding check box under the appropriate Microsoft Personal Storage Table (PST) mailbox.
• Click Back to main view or Escape key to confirm and close the Options window.

To remove a PST file from index:

• In the Tools menu, click Options...
• Select the Emails & Organizer tab.
• Inside the Microsoft Personal Storage Tables (PST) node, select the pst file you want to remove.
• Click on the Remove PST filebutton.
• Click Back to main view or Escape key to confirm and close the Options window.

NOTE: YOU CANNOT ADD A PST FILE THAT IS ALSO MOUNTED INSIDE MICROSOFT OUTLOOK® . IF THE PST FILE IS AVAILABLE IN MICROSOFT OUTLOOK® , YOU NEED TO USE THE OUTLOOK® INDEXING FEATURE INSTEAD OF THIS OPTION.

NOTE: YOU MIGHT NEED TO CLOSE OUTLOOK TO REMOVE PST FILES THAT ARE ALREADY OPEN BY OUTLOOK AND CDS.
