How to move Outlook PST files to another location
Outlook saves PST files at the location %local app data%\Microsoft\Outlook\ when running Vista or Windows seven (% app data%\Microsoft\Outlook\ for Windows XP)by default.
When it involves Hotmail and Gmail there’s no way to relocate the PST files in outlook.
If you need a reason to replace these files Outlook can simply recreate them and begin downloading your emails once more.
But there’s a registry hack to force the PST Path. This will either be done before you add the account to Outlook or if you would like to replace existing PST files. Within the later case you would like to relocate the PST files from the default location to the new location additionally.
Close Outlook and find Outlook within the registry (regedit.exe).
Outlook 2003: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\
Outlook 2007: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\
Outlook 2010: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\
Then produce a brand new Expandable String worth named ForcePSTPath and as worth enter the trail where you would like the PST files to be.
Now begin Outlook and the new path should be used.
