[single computer, single user - Windows 10, Outlook 2010, no add'l devices so no syncing needed, no mobile version, etc.]
I have two .psts files - both POP3
First one was original and has everything, even more than one contact folder.
Second .pst created years later to deal with email for client - completely separate account.
I wanted to create a new folder for the 2nd .pst - a contact folder.
Can't seem to do it.
Wasn't showing up in any folder list - not 2nd .pst where I created it, not in first one either.
Added a test contact and that showed up in default contact folder of original [1st] .pst
Deleted it test contact and deleted contact 'folder'.
Then contact folder got 'stuck' in Deleted folder of 2nd .pst
Couldn't get it out.
Had to restore externally backed up .pst file from yesterday.
So can 2nd .pst have its own contacts or not?
And if so, how to create a contacts folder in 2nd .pst.
I right clicked on folder, clicked on New folder and then clicked on drop down to say it was a contacts folder.
It opened up and let me create that test contact but, as explained above, that test contact ended up in #1 .pst's default contact folder.
Bizarre.
