Because Microsoft Outlook cannot open offline folder(OST) file directly, when you need to access the data in OST file, you must convert it into a PST file which can be recognized by Outlook.

Some common situations when you need to convert OST to PST are:

  • Due to certain reasons, the Exchange mailbox linked to the OST file is inaccessible. You need to access the mailbox data via the OST file.
  • The OST file is corrupted or damaged. You want to recover its data.
  • You need to get specific data that exist only in the local OST file.

With DataNumen Exchange Recovery, you can convert OST file to PST file easily and efficiently.
