How to backup/copy your personal folders file (.pst)

Caution - the Office 365 support team does not recommend storing data locally for the following reasons:

  • Security - if someone gets access to your computer, they can easily extract the data from the local data file.
  • Loss of data - if the data is not backed up, it cannot be recovered.
  • Deleted data - if deleted, Microsoft's recovery tool cannot be used to restore the data.

If you found a local pst file, use the instructions below to backup/copy. If you do not have one and want to create one, follow these instructions: create an Outlook data file. After you have created a local pst folder, you will need to manually move/copy items into it. If you use the move command, it will remove the item from within your Office 365 account and place it within your local folder. This means it will no longer be visible in Outlook on the web and can only be accessed from the computer where you have this local file configured.
