PST Password Issue After Outlook Profile Corruption: Looking for a Simple Solution - Brantanson01 - 02-20-2026

I am facing a serious issue with my Outlook PST file after my Outlook profile became corrupted. After recreating the profile, Outlook now keeps asking for a password for the same PST file, but I am 100% sure that I never set any password on it. Because of this, I am unable to open my mailbox data and access important emails. Has anyone experienced a similar PST password problem after Outlook profile corruption? I am looking for a simple, safe, and quick solution to unlock or remove the PST password without damaging the data.

If your PST file won't open after your Outlook profile is corrupted, I recently used the DataVare Outlook PST Password Recovery Expert tool and had a great experience. I had forgotten the password to an old Microsoft Outlook PST file. Even after entering the correct password several times, the file wouldn't open.

With this tool:
The PST file password was easily recovered.
There was no data loss.
The interface was very simple, requiring no technical knowledge.

If you're looking for an easy and reliable solution for Outlook PST password recovery, this tool could be a good choice.
