Stellar Converter for OST

WHEN TO USE

You Should Use Our OST to PST Converter Software

To Export OST to PST

Extract Mailbox Data

If you delete a user mailbox from Exchange without a backup, you can only access the mailbox data via the OST file. If you delete the Exchange user account from the Active Directory, you cannot recover the OST file. The Stellar OST Converter converts an unreadable OST file to a PST file, which users can use in Exchange Server.

To Fix Offline OST Synchronization Error

Offline Outlook Data File (.ost) Synchronization Fails

If the OST file doesn't sync, it means that the ost file cannot be accessed. It could also mean that the mailbox is disabled or deleted from the server. If the OST is inaccessible, you can rebuild the file and download the mailbox data from the server. If the mailbox is deleted from the server, you cannot rebuild the OST file. You can use Stellar Converter for OST to extract mail items from an OST file. You can then export them to a PST file, your Outlook profile, Exchange Server, or Office 365.

Import OST File to Office 365/M365

Need to Consolidate

Are you using Hosted Microsoft Exchange service? You can't use your email, access old emails, or fix the problem because the server was hacked. With an Offline Outlook data file (.ost) available, you can restore and move all mailbox data to Office 365/M365. Stellar Converter for OST Technician migrates OST files to Microsoft 365 while retaining the original folder hierarchy, ensuring a quick migration without any risk of data loss.
