Outlook 2010 no longer uses nk2-files to store addresses for the AutoSuggest feature but uses an additional Contacts folder  called "Suggested Contacts" for that instead.

Note Earlier versions of Outlook store the nickname cache .nk2 file in the following folder.

  • Windows XP
    Drive:Documents and SettingsUsernameApplication DataMicrosoftOutlook
  • Windows Vista and later versions
    Drive:UsersUsernameAppDataRoamingMicrosoftOutlook

After the nickname cache is imported, the profilename.nk2 file is renamed to profilename.nk2.old. On the next start of Outlook, your nickname cache is not imported. Outlook 2010 does not use the .nk2 file for maintaining your nickname cache. All updates to your nickname cache in Outlook 2010 are made to the hidden message in your default message store.

Note If you have multiple Outlook profiles, the nickname cache from each profile is merged into your new Outlook 2010 nickname cache on the first start of Outlook 2010 by using that profile. Therefore, you may find more than one .nk2 file renamed to .nk2.old.
