    Convert all Your Outlook Express Contacts and Address details to MS Outlook


    Table of Content

      Support for Windows XP is extended for a very limited period. Sooner or later, Microsoft will pull out its support for XP. With this, the year’s long use of email client, Outlook Express also ends. People have already taken proactive measures and started strategic migration to higher versions of Windows, if not, at least to other most popular Microsoft mail client, i.e. MS Outlook.

      Migrating to MS Outlook is the safest bet for XP or Outlook Express users; however, what seems difficult is the migration of their entire Windows Address Book (Outlook Express Contacts) to MS Outlook. The reason being; Outlook Express creates a WAB file to store the contacts and all the address details, while MS outlook saved all data in its PST file. Both of them are not compatible. The only best and the safest choice remain with Stellar WAB to PST Converter.

      With Stellar WAB to PST Converter, you can export all your the contact details and addresses saved in the Outlook Express Windows Address Book in to MS Outlook PST file. Once the file is converted as PST file, the same can be imported to your Outlook profile later. Even if, you are not using Outlook at the moment, there is option to save the converted file as CSV or vCard format. Saving as CSV format will enable you to open the addresses with MS Excel. The VCard style saves individual contacts as they are saved in MS Outlook.

      2. Hi,

        I have around 1700 contacts i.e. stored in WAB file of old Windows XP PC.

        Can I import this one existing address book into Outlook 2013 on Windows 10 PC?

        1. Hello Jackson,
          You can’t import WAB file into MS Outlook directly. In the first attempt, Convert WAB file into Outlook PST file. Now, you can import PST file into Outlook 2013.

          I hope, you would be able to access old contacts from the interface of MS Outlook.
