Data stored locally by Microsoft Outlook is normally saved in the form of OST or PST files, and these often need to be converted to other formats for sharing or archiving.

PCVARE Outlook Converter is a fairly intuitive application that seeks to provide you with a complete conversion solution for OST and PST files. It supports a broad range of output formats, but it could use a few more features.

The application enables you to convert your files to other formats designed for storing large numbers of messages, such as PST and MBOX, but you can also extract individual items and export them as MSG, EML, EMLX, PDF, HTML or MHT files.

PCVARE Outlook Converter is capable of batch processing, which means you can quickly load all the files from a particular folder and convert them to another format in one operation.

However, the program does not support drag and drop actions, and you cannot view the files that have been imported, which means you need to be careful when adding multiple files at once.

After importing the items you wish to process, you have the option of exporting individual messages to PDF and HTML files, among other supported formats.

The application allows you to rename the output files based on each email’s subject, date or sender, making it a lot simpler to sort through the generated documents.

PCVARE Outlook Converter is fairly unremarkable from a visual standpoint, but the application’s straightforward layout should be appreciated.

To sum up, this is a simple, no-frills software utility that can help users who frequently deal with Microsoft Outlook OST and PST files. It supports an impressive array of output formats, and it enables you to rename the created files automatically, but it would benefit from a few additional features.
