In the world of evolving communication, the widely used software for e-communication is the MS Exchange Server and Outlook. Most small, medium or big enterprises in the world use the Outlook and MS exchange server. These two need to work hand in hand to keep the workflow as smooth as possible.
But we donāt always work on these tools when we are online, often we work on these when offline. Today we are going to see Outlook error āExchange is currently in recovery modeā and then look at the procedure to resolve it.
Letās get started.Ā
Outlook works with two file types OST and PST and the OST file is responsible for the offline work and thatās when the error in question occurs. OST files are known as the offline storage table and used when there is no internet connection in your PC or Laptop. The file makes sure that your work is in sync with the Exchange Server once the connection is restored to the system.
The Outlook 2003 and later versions included a new feature called cached exchange mode and this mode offered additional functionality and helped in the offline working environment. With this feature, Outlook makes sure that it copies the data present on the exchange server and keep it synchronized with the offline data files.
