Migrating PST to Hotmail using Outlook involves a manual process where you first configure your Hotmail account in Outlook via IMAP. Once the account is added successfully, you can import the PST file into Outlook by using the Import/Export feature. After the import, you can drag and drop or move the required emails, contacts, and other mailbox items from the PST file to your Hotmail mailbox folder. While this method works, it requires Outlook installation, manual setup, and can be time-consuming for large PST files.

Alternatively, using Advik PST Converter provides a much simpler and automated solution to migrate PST files to Hotmail.

You just need to add the PST file, select Hotmail as the saving option, enter your login credentials, and the tool will handle the rest. It preserves email formatting, metadata, and folder hierarchy during the migration, ensuring no data loss.
