To convert Outlook PST files into multiple formats manually, you can use the “Import/Export” feature in Microsoft Outlook. For example, you can export PST data to EML, CSV, or TXT format by selecting specific folders and saving them in the required format. While this method is free, it has significant limitations, including support for only a few formats, no bulk conversion option, and the potential risk of data loss. It is also a time-intensive process, especially for large files or multiple PST files. Additionally, converting to specialized formats like PDF, HTML, or MBOX manually is either impossible or requires complex third-party plugins.
The BLR PST file converter software is a superior alternative that simplifies the process. This software supports conversion into 30+ file formats, including MBOX, PDF, HTML, EML, and more. It offers features like bulk conversion, retaining folder hierarchy, and ensuring 100% data accuracy. With its intuitive interface, even non-technical users can effortlessly manage the conversion. The tool also preserves metadata, attachments, and formatting during the process, making it a versatile and reliable solution for both personal and professional use.
