How can I recover my Outlook VBA code after Outlook crashed and I had to reinstall Outlook?

Question

My Outlook crashed. I made a full backup of my hard drive (from c:). Is there anyway I can recover my Outlook VBA code from my backup?

There should be a **VbaProject.OTM** file in `%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook`, thats where. — PatricK, Jul 23 '15 at 00:17

VBA code is stored in a file named VBAProject.otm

Search for the new empty VBAProject.otm file. Replace it with the backup version.

I can't believe it. Your answer was right on!! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!!!! :-) :-) :-) There was one weird thing I wanted to mention. When I found my old VBAProject.otm, I saw that the file date was from back in 2013. At first, I thought it couldn't be my file, so I continued to search with no luck. Finally, I decided that 2013 was the best I could do, so I copied that file over the new one. I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened VBA and saw all my recent code there. Again, Thank You!! – SixSigmaGuy Jul 23 '15 at 01:02
