Outlook PST Password Removed But Still Not Opening – Any Fix?
Title
Question
I had an old Outlook PST file that was password-protected. Recently, I managed to remove the PST password using a recovery tool, but now I am facing another issue — even after removing the password, the PST file is still not opening in Outlook. Every time I try to import or open it, Outlook either gives an error or just does not load the data. Has anyone else faced this situation? Is there any reliable method or tool to fix this issue and make the PST file accessible again?

Answers:

If you have successfully removed the password of the Microsoft Outlook PST file, but the file still is not open, it means that the problem is not just related to the password. Recently, I faced the problem of forgetting the password for my Outlook PST file, and after conducting extensive research, I tried the Softaken PST Password Removal Tool. My experience was quite positive.

Features of the tool:
Unlocked password-locked PST file in minutes
No data loss
The user interface is very simple and clean
No Outlook installation required

My advice: If you have forgotten the password of your PST file, then this tool from Softaken can be a good and safe option.

If your PST file still won’t open after removing the password, it may be corrupted. Try repairing it with Inbox Repair Tool (scanpst.exe) first. If that fails, you can use BitRecover PST Password Recovery, which not only removes PST passwords but also ensures compatibility with Outlook, helping recover access to locked or inaccessible PST files safely.

A few days ago, I was trying to open an old Outlook PST file, but I had forgotten the password. I tried many tricks, but nothing worked. Then a friend told me about the DataVare Outlook Password Recovery Expert Tool. I tried it and was really shocked; the password was recovered in just a few minutes.

Why did you like this tool
User-friendly interface, no technical knowledge required
Recovers even the oldest PST passwords
Supports all versions of Outlook
Data remains completely safe

If you have also forgotten the password and the Outlook file is not opening, then definitely try it once.

You can easily unlock it without any data loss. I recently used the GainTools PST Password Recovery Tool, and it proved very helpful. My Outlook PST file was password-locked, and I had forgotten the password. This tool recovered the password in just a few minutes, and best of all, none of my emails or attachments were lost. This tool is straightforward; load the PST file, scan it, and the password is instantly retrieved. It even works with large PST files. This is an excellent utility to try if you have a password-protected PST file.<o:p></o:p></span>
