When to Use Stellar OST PST Conversion Tool?
Need to Extract Data from Inaccessible OST?
Exchange Server crash and mailbox synchronization problems can turn OST file inaccessible or orphan. Similarly, a client machine may fail to boot due to hardware problem, crash, or malware infection, or the drive containing OST file may have large number of bad sectors. These situations ultimately result in inaccessible OST with risk of losing critical mailbox data if there’s no backup. With Stellar tool, you can convert OST to PST & extract mailbox data including emails, attachments, contacts, etc.
Are You Migrating to a New Email Service?
When you migrate to a new email service, it may be a challenge to access mailbox data stored in OST files of user accounts that are configured with older email service. This might turn into critical situation in case if there’s no PST backup of the OST files, as that would result in loss of unsynchronized mailbox data inside OST. Stellar tool addresses such email migration challenges by allowing to convert OST to PST and extract mailbox data - emails, attachments, contacts, notes, etc. in a portable format. The resultant PST can be imported in a compatible email service.
Changing Over to a New Computer?
OST file is local cache of the user’s Exchange mailbox, which can’t be directly imported in Outlook or opened on any another system. So when you change over to a new computer, the data stored in the OST will be lost unless you find a way to retrieve it in a portable format such as PST. Stellar OST PST conversion tool makes this possible by converting OST file and extracting mailbox data in PST format, which can be opened in Outlook client installed on the new machine.
Facing Difficulty with Outlook Import/Export Wizard?

However, it cannot extract data from inaccessible OST, i.e. Offline Outlook Data files without Exchange account. Further, Outlook Import/Export utility requires users to have technical proficiency and spend time to get the expected results. It also needs the same original Exchange account for this task, and you cannot convert inaccessible OST files with the help of Import/Export Wizard. Stellar Converter for OST software provides a hassle-free and reliable solution for converting OST file into PST. The OST PST conversion tool extracts mail items with 100% precision and original integrity.
