    How do you backup the Outlook calander?


    I currently use Rainlender as a desktop calander and sync it to Google because if I have to re install my OS I wont lose the google calander dates.

    I am thinking though that maybe Outlook calander may be a bit easier to use, but I am wary of using it incase I have to do a fresh install of my OS and as such lose my dates.

    I know how to back up the individual folders in Outlook but I dont know how to back up the calander, so can someone please tell me.

    Regards

    You can always use SyncToy to back up your .pst file but....

    If this is a business system, Outlook's data should be backed up already on the server. If it is a personal system, switch to Windows Live Mail and create a free .live account...even if you don't plan to use the .live e-mail. It just lets you sync your data online. I have it across three computers, so a reinstall brings down all of my e-mails, contacts, and calendar....free.
