Microsoft Outlook is no doubt, a very helpful application, which lets you manage all your e-mails with ease, but some of its older versions, have problems with the limited size of the pst file. In Outlook 2002 and its earlier versions, the pst files are in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) format, and the overall size has a limit of 2 GB.
If you are a regular user of Outlook, the size of the pst file is bound to exceed the 2GB limit, at some point in time. This initially slows down Outlook reducing its performance considerably. Further use, might result in the pst file getting corrupted, leading to loss of data. Outlook does provide an Inbox Repair Tool called Scanpst.exe, to repair 2 GB pst file, but this tool randomly truncates the oversized pst file, which might result in loss of important and confidential data.
To handle such a situation, it is best to make use of a professional Outlook Recovery software that can repair 2GB pst file. REMO Recover Outlook (pst) software, does not truncate the oversized pst file, but creates a new pst file, and copies all the contents of the corrupted pst file, onto the new pst file. This way, it makes sure that you get back all your important and confidential e-mails.
