Microsoft Office Outlook - Backup


Someone asked me about backup of Microsoft Office Outlook before few months ago. Their email account configured with Microsoft Office Outlook. So, each and every emails travel through Microsoft Office Outlook. The entire important emails and other relative data stored on hard disk. One day their Windows crashed and lost entire important emails including contacts details too. That is why they asked me about backup of Microsoft Office Outlook.


I found that Microsoft Corporation introduced Backup utility with Microsoft Office Outlook which is not so popular with Microsoft Office Outlook. This Backup utility works with following outlook client.
  1. Microsoft Outlook 2002
  2. Microsoft Office Outlook 2003
  3. Microsoft Office Outlook 2007
It is just 160 KB size of tool named 'pfbackup.exe'. It is absolutely free tool. You just need to run/install it then you get 'Backup' options under File menu of your Outlook. You can backup of your outlook as per your requirements. It creates backup in .pst file format(Personal folder files). You can store it on another partition or external removable storage media like Pen Drive, USB Hard Disk, CDs etc. Please visit following link to download backup tools.
