How to Boost Outlook Speed by Upgrading Old PST Files? - Thomaswilson081 - 11-25-2025

I am facing performance issues in Outlook because most of my PST files are very old and have not been upgraded in years. Whenever I open Outlook, it becomes slow, takes time to search emails, and sometimes even freezes. I have heard that upgrading or optimizing old PST files can help improve Outlook speed, but I am not sure what the correct steps are or which method works best. Can anyone guide me on how to upgrade old PST files to boost Outlook performance?
