Even after email deletion, it stays inside file until you compact it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>PST File Fragmentation:<\/strong> Over time, PST files become fragmented, which allows Outlook to use its space again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s go through each method step by step and help you find out the best one as per your needs and requirements.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Shrink a PST File After Deleting Emails?<\/h2>\n<p>Helpfully, there are some methods available that you can try to check to reduce PST file size. All the solutions are tried and tested professionally, so you can trust them to implement in your own way.<\/p>\n<h3>#1.

Archive Old Emails<\/h3>\n<p>If the above method doesn&#8217;t work for you, next try to archive old emails, which will move older emails out of the main PST file into a separate archive file. This reduces the active PST file size and improves Outlook performance.<\/p>\n<p><!--StartFragment --><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Run the Outlook application and click on the File tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Next, tap on Tools &gt;&gt; Clean up Old items option.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Select the required folders to archive.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Also, choose the needed date to archive old emails.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Choose the location where you want to save archive PST file.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Now, Outlook will move old emails to archive file.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"pf0\"><span class=\"cf0\">Note: It will take time, as per your mailbox size.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--EndFragment --><\/p>\n<h3>#3. Remove Attachments<\/h3>\n<p>Here, we can remove attachments from PST emails instead of deleting the entire message. This helps reduce PST file growth while keeping important emails secure.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Run the Microsoft Outlook application on your computer.<\/li>\n<li>Click the File tab, then choose<strong> Tools &gt;&gt; Mailbox Cleanup<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Click Find items larger than and enter a size.
