It is possible to export the Outlook Email Accounts direct from the Registry and import it back on the other installation. To do this open the Regedit and go to:
[HKEY_USERS\\S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxx\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\Windows Messaging Subsystem\\Profiles\\OutlookNote: "S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxx"
is your GUID, which will differ for each installation.Export the aforementioned Registry Key
To import it on another installation is simple (just a few more steps):
1) Open Outlook at least ONCE, and DO NOT create an e-mail account a this time. Just follow the start up screens until it is done.
2) Open the REGEDIT and import the KEY with your email accounts settings (make sure you have changed the GUID on the backup file as explained above
3)Open Outlook again. Don''t be scared if it gives you an error message. Just ignore it and close the message window. Outlook will open with all your e-mails and accounts already restored.
