    I have a variety of terribly massive(600MB to 2GB), archive PST folders. They are on external storage. Whenever I search for a file, I need to manually connect to different archives to Outlook and wait for them to load. I don’t know what to do. How to save my time and search PST files without Outlook.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    You can try this outstanding
    Create a separate mail profile, then start Outlook with that profile. Now connect your PST files to it and let them index the PST files. Lastly restart your Outlook with regular mail profile. When in need to search for archive item, open start menu and type; store:mapi<your query>

    Thanks for sharing this solution, It helps me a lot. But still there are some issue while searching PST file. When I search for old PST file it stops searching and shows the same result. Is there any other way to access old PST files on my machine

    I think “Yes” you can search old PST files with this solution. But if its not working then, you should search for an alternate solution
