When your computer crashes or you upgrade your system, you may want to retrieve the Outlook contacts that are stored on your old hard drive. Outlook stores contacts and other saved information in PST files. As long as you can access the PST file on your old hard drive, you can restore your contacts to the new installation of Outlook. You can also retrieve contacts from backup PST files that you created manually on your current hard drive.
