How to find a file lost after a Windows crash?

I have a computer that was running outlook 2010. It crashed. Windows looks to be unrestorable - motherboard update that seems to messed up the boot and many attempts to restore system going no where.

The hard drive looks to be intact with no other issues. I have already moved everything to an external drive. However I cannot find my outlook.pst file that has been running on the computer for 10+ years.

I found the archive.pst and I have found another users outlook.pst file. I have done a complete search of the drive for any PST files. It simply isn't there. I have also looked in the common places the PST file would be stored and do not see any large files that could be the PST file.

Given that I have the drive available and that the PST files was probably one of the last things that were used, what are my best options or steps to find this?
