I use .ost file and try to create shadow copy for 2 files:

  • \?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy22\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\test@mail.ru.ost
  • \?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy22\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\test.txt

But when I call:

File.Exists(shadowFilePath)

I get false for test@mail.ru.ost and I get true for test.txt file. How can I create shadow copy of .ost file when I use outlook ?

  • have you tried getting and or checking for all .ost file extensions in a particular directory..? can you show you you are assigning the particular `shadowFilePath` in your code..? – MethodMan Jul 05 '17 at 17:47
  • Outlook uses 1 e-mail only, so I have only one .ost file. If I open Outlook, I can't copy .ost file to another directory and file in shadow copy doesn't exists (I think shadow copy can't copy .ost file too) – Kirill Jul 05 '17 at 17:54
