Very often your PST files are reaching the size bigger than 1.5 GB. Really this is the size which allows you to open the PST files without any problem and work with them. One time the PST file just broke and you think that all information cannot be found. This is not right because Microsoft Office has own tool for repairing such large PST files. You should follow the procedure to do it alone:
1. Click Start menu, and select Run.
2. In the box, which appeared write: “C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMapi\LocaleID\scanpst.exe”, where LocaleID is the local indentifier (LCID) on your installation of Microsoft Office. For example, LCID for English (United States) is 1033.
3. Click on OK.
4. Write the path and name of the file, which you want to repair. You can use Browse too, but if the file is situated on hidden folder you will not be able to find it.
5. Click Start.
6. After the scan finish, make backup of the file, in case of braking it. 7. Click Repair.
After that load the PST file and remove some of the information from it.
