- write down “location” “ost” file. go folder specified.
- close your outlook.
- using “windows explorer” go folder ost files these folders wrote down in location section. basically, location usually“c:\users\yourusername\appdata\local\microsoft\outlook“.
- then highlight ost files in folder. (hold “ctrl” button click and select all).
- do right-click on highlighted file, select “properties“.
