CorrectPST diagnoses the file first, shows what it found, and only releases a repaired PST after verification passes.
Real CorrectPST workflow using a controlled test PST. Repair timing varies by file.
Demo summary: The demo shows a damaged PST being selected and uploaded, structural diagnosis results, a supported repair beginning, server-backed repair progress, successful independent verification, verified mailbox-record counts, and the repaired PST becoming available to download.
How it works
A calm, bounded process for a file that may contain years of important email. Light is $39 one time for three CorrectPST repair credits; one credit is used when an eligible repair begins.
Recognize the PST and determine whether the supported recovery path can be attempted.
Preserve validated mailbox blocks and rebuild only the damaged structural metadata.
Check structural invariants independently before a candidate can be selected.
Download the independently verified result through private authorization during the 24-hour retention window.
Recovery philosophy
CorrectPST’s initial repair strategy is intentionally narrow: retain validated content, reconstruct damaged indexes, and decline cases that require inventing data or resolving unsafe ambiguity.
That means some files will be classified as unsupported or unrecoverable. A clear decline is better than a plausible-looking PST that cannot be trusted.
Independent verification
After repair, CorrectPST checks the candidate again as a separate validation step. The download is released only if the repaired file passes those structural checks. If it does not, CorrectPST does not label it verified.
Privacy by construction
Your browser sends PST parts directly to private Cloudflare storage; filenames, paths, exact sizes, capabilities, signed URLs, and PST-derived data stay out of analytics.
Source files and verified repaired outputs are stored privately and automatically deleted 24 hours after a job finishes. Delete now makes downloads unavailable immediately and removes the files.
Read the current privacy detailsQuestions before recovery
The first repair path focuses on Unicode Outlook PST files whose mailbox content remains substantially intact but whose structural indexes or related metadata are damaged. Broader corruption and OST conversion are not currently supported. Read the safe PST repair guide.
Yes. CorrectPST diagnoses first and offers paid repair only when the supported path applies. CorrectPST Light costs $39 once and includes three repair credits.
Candidate files must pass structural verification before they can be offered. Outlook compatibility is a required release gate, but no repair tool can honestly guarantee recovery for every damaged PST.
CorrectPST is designed to decline ambiguous or unsafe repairs rather than invent mailbox data or silently choose between conflicting revisions.
Your PST transfers directly from the browser to private Cloudflare storage. Files are automatically deleted 24 hours after the job finishes, or sooner when you choose Delete now.
Not in the initial scope. CorrectPST focuses on supported Unicode PST repair, not OST-to-PST conversion.
CorrectPST Light is a $39 one-time purchase with three CorrectPST repair credits. Each eligible repair attempt uses one credit when repair begins. Credits stay with your CorrectPST account and can be used on separate eligible PST jobs.
Available source and repaired files are retained for 24 hours after a job finishes. You can choose Delete now sooner. Repaired files can be downloaded again during the retention window.
The MVP automated repair service accepts PST files up to 7.5 GiB.
Repair time varies with the file and damage. CorrectPST reports truthful job phases rather than an estimated completion time.
Yes. After a repair is accepted, it continues in the background. Return to the CorrectPST workspace in the same browser and CorrectPST will resume checking the protected job status.
Routine human access to PST contents is not part of the service, and PST contents are not used for AI training.
No. CorrectPST is an independent CorrectFormats product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Microsoft.
