My old PC has Win XP on it, and I used easy transfer to get my data over to my new PC that has Windows 7 on it. My old PC also has microsoft outlook 2000. My new PC has outlook 2013. I was told that using windows easy transfer would give me a .pst file of all my emails, but I don't see where this is.

When trying to make one myself, it tells me that the file is either missing, deleted or I don't have permission. I'm doing this on an admin account, so I don't know why this would be.

What is the solution to this?
 


go into outlook 2000 and find out what is your account type. if i remember correctly only POP3 stored emails locally in a pst file. if your account type is exchange or IMAP all of your emails are stored on the server.
