Aid4Mail seems to be processing the wrong MS Outlook PST file or MAPI profile. Why?

A. Sometimes, when you try to process a second Outlook data store (PST file or MAPI profile), Aid4Mail seems to ignore the new settings and simply reprocesses the first email store. When this happens, you might notice the presence of a temporary profile with a name like pstloadtmp000. This profile is not created by Aid4Mail, but by some other tool that is hooked onto MS Outlook or Exchange. The cure to this issue is to delete the temporary profile and/or disable any third-party tools that could be interfering with Aid4Mail (synchronization software, backup, anti-virus, etc.) You can delete the temporary profiles by opening the Windows Control Panel, followed by double-clicking on the Mail icon, then clicking on the Show Profiles button in the Mail Setup dialog box. If the above doesn’t apply, see if rebooting your computer fixes the issue.
