PST Corruption After Moving or Renaming PST file


In Outlook 2000, when you try to modify or backup your emails, notes, contacts and other items by clicking on Archive.pst or Outlook.pst files, the Outlook gets locked up. As soon as you click on any personal folder to open it, the Outlook stops responding and you have to shut it down.
