Exporting contacts from an OST file manually can be a tricky and time-consuming task. The OST file is primarily used when Outlook is connected to an Exchange server, and accessing it without Outlook being connected can pose challenges. To manually export contacts, you would need to open the OST file in Outlook and export the contacts as a CSV file. This method works well when the OST file is healthy and connected to an active Exchange server. However, if the OST file is orphaned or inaccessible, this approach becomes impractical. Furthermore, manual export processes often run the risk of incomplete data transfer, especially if the OST file is corrupted or very large.

A far simpler and more reliable solution is using the DRS OST to PST Converter tool. This tool allows you to access your OST file without needing an Exchange server or Outlook connection. You can easily export contacts from the OST file directly, ensuring that all contact information is preserved. The DRS OST to PST Converter also supports exporting data into multiple formats, including CSV, for easy import into other applications. It streamlines the entire process, making it fast and efficient, and eliminates the risks associated with manual methods, such as data loss or corruption.
