If you receive a message that your Outlook Data File is corrupted, you'll need to close and restart Outlook.
When Outlook restarts, it will automatically try to repair your file.
Why am I seeing this?
Outlook Data Files (.pst) and Offline Outlook Data Files (.ost) store a wide variety of information, including an offline copy of your email addresses, profile information, and more. Occasionally, this file can become corrupted. When this happens, you'll need to close and then restart Outlook.
When you reopen Outlook, the program will attempt to repair any corrupted files.
