How to Handle PST File Errors During Password Recovery?

  • September 12, 2025 10:36 PM PDT

    I have been trying to recover the password of my Outlook PST file, but I keep running into different errors during the process. Sometimes the recovery tool crashes, and other times it shows that the PST file is corrupted or inaccessible. Has anyone faced similar issues while trying to recover a PST password? What are the possible solutions or reliable methods to handle these PST file errors and still successfully recover the password?

    PST (Personal Storage Table) files are used by Microsoft Outlook to store emails, contacts, calendars, and other data. When you forget the password of a PST file or the file gets corrupted, it becomes difficult to access it. Many times, different types of errors appear during password recovery. I wanted to open an old PST file, but I had forgotten the password. I tried many tools, but nothing worked. Then I found "GainTools PST Password Recovery Tool", and to be honest, it turned out to be quite good.
    The password was recovered in a few seconds
    There was no need to install Outlook
    The interface is very simple; anyone can use it, whether they have technical knowledge or not
    If your PST file is also locked, then definitely try it once. It helped me a lot.
