Several people lose their Microsoft Outlook data because of Vvew virus attacks. Many people are unaware of the solutions to this problem and ultimately lose important information. At the same time, this is all they need to recover their files.

It is essential to note that the Vvew virus is an Avant virus that attacks computers through emails and website pages. It has layered blocks of designs used to attack, encode, and erase MS Outlook PST files. Once it strikes any .PST file, it alters its code and changes its extension to .vvew. Once this happens, you cannot use your Outlook files or mail because your MS Outlook reads files with .PST and OST extensions.

While the Vvew virus might seem harmful to files and data, the Recovery Toolbox for Outlook has powerful algorithms to scan every file from the email box and repair it. There are two methods to solve the problem with this tool. They are:

  1. The online method: https://outlook.recoverytoolbox.com/online/
  2. The offline method: https://outlook.recoverytoolbox.com/repair-outlook/

The two methods are workable to solve the virus attack because the tool has an online and offline version. You can use these versions to recover encrypted .PST files (.PST across all versions– ANSI (Outlook 97-2003), Unicode (2007 and above)).

Read through to understand how to recover and restore your Microsoft Outlook files.

The Online Method: How to Recover Your PST File with Recovery Toolbox for Outlook

You can easily use this to regain your affected information online. This recovery process works effectively on all devices as smoothly and swiftly as possible to restore OST files and fix your encrypted .PST files.

Follow these steps to repair your files online:

  1. You must change the file extension from Vvew to PST for the service to select the recovery algorithm to use.
  2. Click “Select file” and select an Outlook data file with the extension “.PST” or “.OST.”
  3. Input your valid email address
  4. Click Continue 
  5. Wait for the corrupted .pst/.ost file to be recovered
  6. Download the recovered Microsoft Outlook pst file

Once you have recovered the data from the affected MS Outlook file, it will be stored as a new MS Outlook 2016 file with the .PST extension. This way, it will be easy to regain any .PST MS Outlook private file through any browser and device.

The Offline Method: How to Recover Your Infected .PST with Recovery Toolbox for Outlook

Before you begin, you must look for your Outlook Data Files in Outlook before repairing infected .pst files. Follow these steps

  1. First, select File, Choose Account Settings, and Click Account Settings.
  2. Next, select the Data Files 
  3. You will see all Outlook Data Files (.PST) and Offline Data Files (.OST) listed, along with the account name the files are associated with.

Once you have been able to locate all your Outlook files, take these steps to repair your attacked file.

Step 1. Identify the infected Outlook data file location

To recover an infected Outlook data file, first Exit Microsoft Outlook and check one of these locations:

  • For Outlook 365: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\
  • For Outlook 2019: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
  • For Outlook 2016: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

  • For Outlook XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
