New Outlook won't open .pst files

The new version of Outlook for Windows (Microsoft Outlook Version 1.2023.425.600 - Production) no longer allows me to open my old .pst archive files.

All documentation refers to a File menu that this version does not have at all.

    I have to put my vast amounts of archive email in .pst as it you let the main folder get too big the whole thing corrupts.

    You can also back up data easily and share it with others eg. when you leave a job and hand records to your successor

    But I just got a pop up asking me to to move to new outlook and saying I would not be able to access .pst. That is the archive of my life and and my work for a decade

    What's going on?
