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.
Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management

I have the same complaint. I have years of PST files that are part of a projects that required emails to be stored with all data for each specific project. Not having access to those PST files will be a real problem.
WOW is all i can say. I have years of old pst files that I need to get random things from. I even export out my pst file for each job once it is complete. then when a job comes back I link the old pst file for reference. SO is this in the works. I recently needed to rebuild my pc and downloaded outlook and it doesnt have the option to roll back to the old.
new outlook does not have a file menu
Concur with everyone's feedback on the 'new' outlook.
Fortunately I was able to turn off the new Outlook and it reverted to the old version with my .pst file/s were intact and re-enabled.
I'm truly at a loss as to why so many features were removed from this new and improved (sic) version! E.g. I was amazed that conditional formatting was no longer available when this was a fundamental feature in the rules section - I had it configured to help me quickly identify urgent / critical emails by colour. (what I had to read/action urgently vs. general info).
What a cluster....
The "new" Outlook is ABSOLUTE GARBAGE!!! I also reverted back to the old, tried and true Outlook, which can read PST files.
Microsoft Development needs to GROW UP and GO BACK TO SCHOOL.
SHEESH!
