I am facing an issue while trying to shrink a large PST file in Microsoft Outlook. Even after deleting unnecessary emails and emptying the Deleted Items folder, the PST size is not reducing. Outlook’s Compact Now option also seems to take too long or does not reduce the file size effectively. Has anyone experienced this issue before? What are the working methods or reliable steps to properly shrink or compact a large PST file?

If your Outlook PST file has become too large and you're having trouble compacting or shrinking it, compacting your PST becomes essential. I tried several manual methods, but they weren't very effective for large PST files. That's when I used the DataVare Outlook PST Compact Expert Tool, and honestly, it turned out to be a very fast and safe solution.

Highlights of this tool:

  • Quickly compacts large PST files without data loss
  • Option to compress attachments separately
  • Outlook's speed and performance improves immediately
  • Supports all Outlook editions
  • Simple interface, easy to use even for new users

If you're troubled by oversized PST files and want to make Outlook smoother, this tool is a reliable option. I definitely recommend it.

If PST file become oversize and Outlook compact feature doesn't work then you need to opt BitRecover PST Splitter as it allows you to split PST file into smaller files and if its not look fine then you can also use BitRecover Outlook Duplicate Remover to remove repeated content from PST file and makes properly organized PST file.
