I have been using Microsoft Outlook for quite some time and recently noticed that my PST file has grown quite large, which is causing performance issues. I am looking for a free and simple way to compress or reduce the size of my Outlook PST file without risking any data loss. I have already deleted unnecessary emails and emptied the Deleted Items folder, but the PST file size has not reduced much. Can anyone suggest a manual method or a tool that can help me safely compress the PST file?

PST (Personal Storage Table) files in Microsoft Outlook store your emails, contacts, calendars, and other data. Over time, these files can grow very large, which affects the speed of Outlook. The good news is that you can compress these PST files without spending any money.

If your Outlook PST file has become very large and Outlook is slowing down or crashing frequently, then I am sharing a great solution that I have used myself.
Softaken Compress PST Software is an easy and fast tool that lets you compress your PST file without any data loss. The best part is, it is user-friendly and does not require technical knowledge.

Large PST files are easily compressed into smaller parts
There is an option to compress or remove attachments as well
Outlook performance improves
A free demo version is also available

I tried many manual methods, but this tool seemed to be the fastest and simplest. If you are also troubled by a large PST file, then definitely try it once.

Managing large PST files manually can be extremely risky and time-consuming. The MailsDaddy PST Split Tool offers a safer, more efficient method to handle oversized Outlook data files. This tool supports both ANSI and Unicode PST formats and allows users to divide files based on size, date range, folder selection, or sender’s email ID. It operates smoothly without needing MS Outlook installed, and maintains complete data integrity. Users can confidently process multiple PST files without the risk of corruption or losing crucial emails, contacts, calendars, and other mailbox items. The software is highly compatible with Windows and works flawlessly across Outlook 2003 to 2021. For professionals who work with high-volume Outlook data and need a secure way to declutter, back up, or archive data—this tool offers excellent functionality and peace of mind.
