  4. Select Remember my credentials. Click OK



  5. You may be prompted multiple times to re-enter your credentials.
 Set EID to Default Profile

 Re-configure Locally Stored Items

NOTE: These items are stored locally on your computer.

.pst files are by default stored in the following location(s) - depending on what version of Outlook you are using:

  • drive:\Users\user\Documents\Outlook Files\archive.pst
  • drive:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\archive.pst
