Overview

What Is EDB to PST Conversion?

EDB to PST conversion takes a Microsoft Exchange EDB file and produces output suitable for use with Outlook on Windows. EDB is the Exchange Server database format (ESE); PST is the Outlook client format. This tool extracts readable email content from EDB and delivers it as a ZIP of EML files (PST-limited option), which you can import into Outlook or convert further with desktop tools if needed.

Our free EDB to PST converter processes on your device. You drop an .edb file, and the tool extracts emails and packages them for download. All processing happens on your device; nothing is uploaded.

Use cases include Exchange recovery, migrating from on-premises Exchange to Outlook or Office 365, and backing up EDB content when the server is unavailable. No Exchange Server is required — the tool works on any platform.
