Did I delete my dad's .pst files?

The situation is this.

He had Office XP (2002) installed. I was told to put Access 2003 on his computer, so I installed it. I told the computer to "Remove old versions of Office" but in the advanced menu I ONLY checked Access.

Well later, it turns out that what I did was tell it to remove the old versions of everything EXCEPT Access. So Outlook 2002, Word 2002, etc, all got removed. Access 2002 is now sitting on the computer along with Access 2003.

So..my question is. Would any of the .pst files get removed along with Outlook 2002? Would Microsoft do something like that? I really can't afford to have deleted his .pst files. System Restore was not on, and I'm worried. I looked for all his .pst files and found 8, but I don't know if there were more than 8 earlier or not.
 
Check the last modified date/time, and also the sizes. It's not a problem to open Outlook and import them, if they're the ones you want, then that's great.

If not, then you're screwed 😉
