OST files is an offline version of Microsoft Exchange email server files. If it gets deleted somehow, the user can get its fresh copy by downloading it from the server again. The process of recreating the OST file is given below:
Close the Outlook application.
Open Mail from the Control Panel.
It will open a dialogue box named Mail Setup – Outlook. You need to click on Email Accounts.
The newly opened dialogue box Account Settings will have all the Outlook accounts. Click on Data Files, choose the OST file, and then click Open File Location (to go to the location where particular OST file is residing).
Right-click on the OST file and click Delete option to delete the file.
Note: Before deleting the file, close the Account Settings and Mail Setup window; otherwise the system will give an error message.
Start the Outlook application again. It will automatically create a new OST file for the account (downloading all the data from the Exchange server).
