If you use Outlook (ok who doesn’t?) and you are troubled by it’s use of autocompletion of email addresses when sending messages this post is for you. When you send emails, Outlook remembers (well it tries to remember) all the email addresses so that they are available as autocomplete entries later. They don’t get added to your Contacts (or Outlook Address Book), but they are cached in and nk2 file on your hard drive….which is profile specific. This is a problem because profiles are problematic. Many things can cause a profile to become corrupt, unavailable and just outright die. Let’s face it, profiles suck. So to get around this it’d be nice to have a tool that could fix or recreate these nk2 files. Enter the Rebuild Outlook Autocomplete Cache tool. This free (but not Open Source) tool will allow you to recreate a NK2 file from reading the addresses on messages in your Sent items folder or any other folder in your Outook mailbox. When combined with the NK2.info tool you can even recreate your existing, corrupted cache. NK2.info dumps your existing cache (even if it’s corrupt) to a csv file which you can suck back into your Outlook Address Book. Then use the rebuild tool on that contact list to pre-populate the nk2 autocomplete file.
Oh yeah…one more tip. Have you ever wanted to reset all your Outlook contacts “File As” properties so they are all “lastname, firstname” or “firstname lastname”? Well it not easy, but here is link to a Microsoft doc telling you how to do it.
Good stuff….good luck.

I recommend only building the cache on trusted folders on sent folder, if you rebuild on Inbox you basicaly making a cache of inbound emails wich could contain alot of spam.
The information and recommendations you have posted are fantastic and beneficial. A demo version can be useful for the user before buying the actual software. A good quality software must be the top priority for the individual, because if it doesn't restore data directly then its of no use at all. So pick up a good software like Disk Doctors recovery software.

EdbMails OST to PST converter is an excellent solution to resolve OST file issues in tough, as well as exceedingly complex and tragic scenarios. The user interface was appealing and straightforward to use, and the application was simple to install. This application supports Exchange, IMAP, and Outlook OST files and works flawlessly on corrupted and even large OST files. It works with every version of Microsoft Office and Exchange, from the very first, 2003, to the most latest, 2019. You may import directly from OST files to a live Exchange Server or an Office 365 tenancy with the Corporate and Technical licenses, allowing you to utilize it as a migration tool. The software is highly recommended for all types of users, including home users, Exchange administrators, and network administrators.
