PST Walker
Kraków, Poland
What it is
PST Walker is Windows software for opening Outlook PST, OST, MSG, and EML files without Outlook, and for recovering deleted items and folders. It searches Outlook items using keywords, Boolean queries, filters, and recent-search history. Recovery can include deleted or purged emails, contacts, calendar entries, and Outlook Rules and Alerts. Users can export or convert items to PST, MBOX, MSG, EML, and CSV, with compatibility described for Thunderbird MBOX and formats used by Apple Mail, Gmail, and Windows Mail. The maker says files are processed locally and not uploaded during conversion. A free demo limits export to 15 emails per folder; the full version allows unlimited export. License choices range from the Lite License at $32.95 a year to the Floating License at $449.75, paid once; Enterprise pricing is custom. Licenses use one-time payments without automatic recurring charges. Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 7, and Windows Server 2012–2025 are supported, with .NET Framework 4.7.2 or later required.
