MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / March 2008Increasing size on pst file
I have a pst file that I keep old e-mails in. Periodically I clean out old e-mail, however when I deleted files this time, the pst file actually grew in size. I deleted files, then emptied the deleted files folder (all of them), closed and restarted Outlook, but the file is larger than when I started, even with the file deleted. What am I missing here? > I have a pst file that I keep old e-mails in.

Did you right-click the root of the PST in the Navigation Pane, choose Properties, click Advanced, and then Compact Now?

But note that compacting only works when a significant portion of free space exists within the PST file. It won't compact if it's only a few percent.
