Where is scanpst.exe and how to find it
PST and OST corruption – the root of most Outlook issues
A corrupted PST or OST file is one of the most common causes of problems with Outlook. If an Outlook mail file is corrupted, Outlook does not necessarily tell you about it. However, Outlook will start failing in random and unpredictable ways. From something relatively minor, like messages not turning read after you open them, to crashes, freezes and inability to launch Outlook. A large portion of our support requests have nothing to do with TechHit products, but are resolved by running scanpst to fix errors in the PST / OST file.
How to find scanpst on your computer
If you have Microsoft Office installed, you have scanpst.exe installed as well. It is located in the same folder as Outlook. Here is an easy way to find it:
- Open the Task Manager.
- Find Outlook on the Processes tab.
- Right-click on Outlook and select “Open File Location”. The screenshot on the right shows Windows 8. In Windows 7, “Open File Location” is the first command on the right-click menu.
- You will see Windows Explorer open the folder in which Outlook is installed. Scanpst is located in the same folder.
IMPORTANT: you have to run scanpst repeatedly on every PST/OST file, until it tells you that there are no more errors in the file. You will find additional instructions in the first part of this article.

SnoozeIt 1.0 – Official Release
Today we are happy to announce the first official release of our brand new product – SnoozeIt for Microsoft Outlook.
SnoozeIt is a tool for managing ToDos and follow-ups right in the Inbox. Instead of keeping messages in the Inbox as reminders to do things in the future, you “Snooze” them. SnoozeIt will hide the message from the Inbox and then show it at the time you specify. This allows you to keep a very small and manageable Inbox while staying on top of things you need to do. Ideally, you will only have a handful of messages in your Inbox at any given moment, so important items do not get lost in the clutter.
Perfect tool for InboxZero
If you are familiar with the InboxZero email management methodology, you will find that SnoozeIt is a perfect tool for InboxZero in Outlook. Try it and see how seamlessly it fits into your workflow.
Real-world tested in SimplyFile
For those of you who use SimplyFile, this will sound familiar. SimplyFile has a feature called SnoozeIt. Despite the fact that SimplyFile also has TaskIt and ScheduleIt, we kept hearing feedback from customers about how much they like the workflow SnoozeIt supports and how useful it would be even to those who do not use SimplyFile (for example, to SimplyTag users). That is the reason we decided to expand the functionality and create a separate product.
This also means that the core of SnoozeIt has been tested in real world usage for over five years. Quite remarkable for a brand new product.

We love building products that help our customers, the best customers in the world! We also would like to thank SimplyFile customers who provided excellent feedback that helped us shape SnoozeIt into such a successful product.
