OST File Corrupted Due to Sudden Power Failure — How Can I Repair It?
by Focawif focawif - Tuesday, 21 October 2025, 2:24 AM
 

During a power outage, Outlook was open and working on my OST file. Now it shows corruption errors, and Outlook can not sync properly. Is there a reliable way to fix this file and recover all mailbox items?

When an OST file becomes corrupted as a resultofa power failure, Outlook can becomenon-responsive or show error messages when tryingtoaccess emails. In these situations, it is preferred to repair the OST file, not reproduce the occurrences by making manual changes that could causemore data tobelost. Tools like FixVare OST Converter help safely and reliably recover emails and attachments from a corrupted OST file.
