Need to create a pst file and upload a previously created pst file into outlook. This was an effortless exercise in classic outlook with readily available option in File menu. How do I get to that functionality in the new outlook.

Hi Phil - I know you weren't replying to me directly, but in an effort to get you on your way to a possible solution - please scroll to the comment I added on Aug 9, 2024 for an interim fix.
Sadly - there is no update from MS at this time other than using Outlook in Classic mode.
Correct - there is no solution to this problem in "new" Outlook. The options at this point are to revert to classic outlook so you can mount .pst files or lose access to them with new outlook. Hoping Microsoft is paying attention and will figure out how to make .pst's accessible in the newer version or scrap it altogether!

This is why I am not switching to the new Outlook until they fix this big problem.
Perhaps I spoke too soon, most of the functions in classic mode have been removed and it scrambles the inbox data. MicroSoft have done a good one on us users with this upgrade!
Thank you so much. I just purchased a new computer and never thought I would get all my .pst files back. This was helpful and I am now working under the classic until I can figure out how to transfer everything into the new version.
