Troubleshooting – Don’t Let Technical Woes Ruin your Outlook
Let’s face it – we’ve all had the experience of trying to import a PST file into an email client before and running into technical difficulties. It’s one of those tech nightmares that can get incredibly frustrating especially when you’ve already spent a good chunk of time trying to make it work. Fortunately we’re here to walk you through the troubleshooting process and get you on the road to PST import recovery.

A common issue that people face is that the file size is too large. If you’re having trouble with this then you may need to break down the PST file into smaller chunks to get it to import properly. This can be time-consuming and tricky to do but it is doable. Additionally make sure you have saved the PST file in a supported format such as .pst .ost or .msg or else it won’t be recognized.
One other thing to look out for is any problems your email provider might be having. If you’re using a service like Gmail that allows you to import emails make sure it is working properly. It is a good idea to contact your provider to check what the issue might be and how to fix it.
That’s it! With a little patience and this guide you should soon be cruising through the PST file import process.
