Default Accidentally deleted crucial folder

As the title says, I've accidentally - and permanently - deleted a crucial folder from Outlook. However: I do a complete backup of my hard drive every ten days, the most recent - as luck would have it - being yesterday. The backup takes the form of a complete backup of all files, an image taken on a portable hard-drive, and a full clone of the primary hard drive to a secondary hard drive in the same PC. Is there any way I can restore the folder in question by importing it ( or even just copying it ) from one of the backups ( I'm thinking the cloned one, although would it be a problem that that's on the D drive ...?... )
Any and all suggestions urgently and gratefully appreciated.

Default

Outlook isn't too particular about which folder you store data files in. You can even put different .pst files in different folders.



There is a default folder location. A quick check on the web says it's here:


drive:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder



However, my guess the location depends on the version of Windows (7? 10? 11?) and the version of Outlook (2010? 2016? 2019? 365?)
