How to Upgrade an Old ANSI PST File to Unicode Format?

[Thomaswilson081]

I have an old PST file created in Outlook 2002, and it is in ANSI format with a 2GB size limit. I want to upgrade it to Unicode format so that I can use it with the latest version of Outlook without data loss. Is there any reliable Upgrade PST tool for this?

Old PST files in Microsoft Outlook were in ANSI format, which has a maximum size limit of 2 GB. New files are in Unicode format, which comes with a larger size and better language support. If your PST file is in ANSI format, it is necessary to upgrade it to Unicode format so that you can avoid data loss and other problems.
Recently, I needed to convert an old ANSI format Outlook PST file to Unicode. The manual method was somewhat lengthy and troublesome, so I tried using some tools. During this time, I came to know about the Softaken Upgrade PST Tool.

The interface of this tool is quite simple and converts the entire file in one or two clicks. No data loss and no technical problems. I was surprised how quickly my file was upgraded to Unicode format.

If your PST file is also in the old format and you want to use Outlook 2016 or above version, then this tool is the perfect option.
