have you been re-arranging files on your computer recently?

sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

the .pst file is where all your emails are stored it should be in the location the computer tells you, its been moved or remamed or deleted

have a read of this it tells you about repairing .pst files
You can search for your .pst files by searching for them using *.pst in the search field. you might need to show hidden files first or enable search
for hidden files in the search screen.
or your pc may be goosed you might be seeing the first signs of hard drive failure.
Run a defrag followed by a scandisk to see if it finds/corrects any errors.
hope that helps,
Cheers

In the path you showed in your first post:
C:\ documents and settings\user\local settings\application data\microsoft outlook\outlook.pst
It is essentially a database that holds all your emails. It's either been moved or deleted or it's become corrupted so that outlook can
no longer open it. Look in the above folder and check if it's present. If not, do a file search to see if it's been moved to some other
location.
If it's present, but corrupted you may be able to repair it using a couple of
Microsoft Utilities. Check the size of the PST file if it's there,
if they get too large (over 2GB) that causes problems.
