First of all I would like to suggest you to archive your PST file, so that you can reduce the PST size upto the Outlook version limit you are using. Because backing up Outlook will create an exact copy of the previous file but not reduce the size of your file. Follow the steps to manually archive PST file.
1. Open Outlook>>File>>Archive option
Or
Go to Tools>>Mailbox cleanup>>Auto archive
from here you can archive PST file according to the date, time, month.Manually you can’t reduce the size. Just that you can set the days of archiving. In order to reduce the size of PST file you have to go with another solution.
Hi
You can reduce PST file size by splitting it using some tool or so.
Yes you can use SysTools Split PST for this task. It will effectively split you PST file as per your choice. You can create any number of files with this tool. Once you split PST file you can backup it.
Just follow the steps as discussed in Outlook PST Backup. This will help you in creating a backup copy of your PST file.
