I'm trying to write a script to disconnect PSTs files from Outlook.
I've been trying with something like this:
$Outlook = new-object -com outlook.application
$Namespace = $Outlook.getNamespace("MAPI")
$PSTtoDelete = "c:\test\pst.pst"
$Namespace.RemoveStore($PSTtoDelete)
I get the following error:
"Cannot Find overload for "RemoveStore" and the argument count "1".
I also tried a different solution with this (found here http://www.mikepfeiffer.net/2013/04/how-to-test-outlook-pst-personal-folder-file-access-with-powershell/) :
$namespace.GetType().InvokeMember('RemoveStore',[System.Reflection.BindingFlags]::InvokeMethod,$null,$namespace,($PSTFolder))
I took a look to the technect documentations and if I understand properly the RemoveStore Method expects a Folder.
If anyone would be able to give me a hint on this one that would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
According to your link the script expects Name of the attached PST, not the path. Try this:
$Outlook = new-object -com outlook.application
$Namespace = $Outlook.getNamespace("MAPI")
$PSTtoDelete = "c:\test\pst.pst"
$PST = $namespace.Stores | ? {$_.FilePath -eq $PSTtoDelete}
$PSTRoot = $PST.GetRootFolder()
$PSTFolder = $namespace.Folders.Item($PSTRoot.Name)
$namespace.GetType().InvokeMember('RemoveStore',[System.Reflection.BindingFlags]::InvokeMethod,$null,$namespace,($PSTFolder))
