Yes, you can combine PST files while keeping all of your attachments. The goal is to meticulously follow the manual approach or for a more dependable and efficient method & utilize a specialist software application.
Manual Method (with Outlook Import/Export)
Outlook has a built-in feature for manually entering data. You create a fresh, blank PST file and then import the data from your previous PST. During the import, Outlook will handle all email attributes including attachments, without difficulty. The biggest disadvantage is that you have to perform this for each PST file separately & which can be laborious and time consuming if you have a large number of files. It is a reliable, free alternative but it demands patience.
Softaken Merge PST Tool
For a much faster and more reliable approach, use a tool like Softaken Merge PST. These tools are specifically built for large scale mergers. They allow you to add many PST files at once and integrate them in one process. The software guarantees that all email data including key information, attachments and folder structure, are properly saved. This removes the possibility of human error and saves significant time, making it the best option for users with a large number of PST.
