PST Conversion, PST Extract and PST Recovery
Want to transfer your emails from Outlook to Thunderbird or Gmail?
Don't bother with the snake dance of data conversion; just save the .pst file
and use PST Walker to read it. ALL of your Outlook data, such as contacts,
email and calendar information can be read.
Are you using Exchange Server and want a copy of your email
that's portable and accessible? Just create and copy an .ost file and
all your information is there.
Worried about losing important information if your hard disc drive fails?
Just save your .pst file to a remote location. PST Walker allow you to everything on the file.
Microsoft Outlook PST reader and Microsoft Exchange OST reader. Microsoft Outlook PST
viewer and Microsoft Exchange OST viewer.
PST Walker is a good solution, when you need to view your mailbox. You may need it
in a business trip, when connection with mail server is lost and there's no way
to read it. It is very important, when you use Microsoft Exchange Server
and Microsoft Outlook mail client. You may be simply out of office,
where Internet connection is absent. All of your contacts, mails, messages,
tasks and calendars are stored on mail server and there's no way to extract it
offline. You may need to send an urgent email or phone call, but contacts are
stored on server.
However, solution exists. PST Walker will help you to restore
your data from files with .pst and .ost extension. This tool will
work with all supported versions of Microsoft Outlook. PST Walker is so easy,
that all functions can be accessed even by beginners.
To repair a 2GB Personal Folders or Offline Folders file
Microsoft Outlook limits the size of Personal Folders .pst files and offline folders .ost
files to 2GB. If a new or changed item increases the size over than limit, you
will not be able to use the .pst or .ost file. Even if you delete
items from the server mailbox, the .ost file will not synchronize.
Outlook has no built-in way to reduce a .pst or .ost file that
has gone over the limit. However, Microsoft provides a tool, PST2GB, to restore the file to operability.
Note, however, that the utility uses a fairly radical approach to "repairing" such a file: it
forcibly truncates the file at the 2 GB boundary (actually, slightly below it)
and makes it readable again. Unfortunately, this means that everything after
the truncation will be lost. If you can suffer the loss of the data at the end
of the file (which tends to be spurious), you can use this to restore the file
to working order and extract the messages within.
Instead of this utility PST Walker provides a safe approach to repair you
lost data. Repairing data with PST Walker and MSG 2 PST comes down to:
- reading the corrupted .pst or .ost file
- identifying and converting data from this .pst or .ost file to Outlook Message Format (*.msg files)
- saving the recovered data to one or several new .pst files with MSG 2 PST utility
Recovering Microsoft Exchange Offline Storage Files (.ost files)
Offline Storage Files (.ost files) are files where Microsoft Exchange stores
data offline. OST files stored on your workstation, holding emails,
contacts, tasks and other items from the original mail account.
Usually, these files cannot be opened with any other tool. PST Walker will help you to restore
your data from files with ost extension. PST Walker can open these files
without a corresponding Microsoft Exchange mailbox or profile on
the server (orphaned files). The PST Walker can converts these files to more
common Outlook Message Format (*.msg files) that can be opened offline with Microsoft
Outlook or other compatible mail client.
