Hello nikkobluefish,

Thanks for the replies. I too struggled to find a solution. The personal
folders backup instructions that came with the Microsoft backup download
appears to tell a person to use a default folder name and path and that puts
the backup folder in the same area as the regular production personal folders
for Outlook. Once the backup folder was moved out of that path progress was
made and finally got the tasks back to a normal mode. Is your situation now
fixed to your satisfaction??
