How to Recover Forgotten Outlook PST Password and Unlock My File?

I have an old Outlook PST file that I urgently need to access, but I've completely forgotten the password I set for it years ago. The file contains important emails and attachments, and I am unable to open it in Outlook because of the password protection. Is there any safe and reliable way to recover the forgotten PST password or unlock the file without damaging the data? I am open to both manual methods and trusted third-party tools, but I want to avoid any solution that risks corrupting my PST.

If you have forgotten the password of the Microsoft Outlook PST (Personal Storage Table) file and are now unable to access emails, contacts or other data saved in it, then there is no need to worry. Recently, I forgot the password of my Outlook PST file and was unable to access the emails and contacts stored in it. While searching on the internet, I found the GainTools PST Password Recovery Tool. This tool is very easy to use. Just load the PST file, and the password will appear on the screen in a few seconds. The best part is, it supports any version of Outlook PST and does not harm the data at all. If you have also forgotten the PST password, then definitely try it once.

If you’ve forgotten the password to an old Outlook PST file and need urgent access, you can try a manual method by opening the PST in Outlook, going to Account Settings, and changing or removing the password—though this works only if Outlook permits it and you remember part of the credentials. For a more reliable solution without risking data corruption, you can use the Aryson Outlook Password Recovery Tool, which quickly retrieves or removes the forgotten PST password, allowing you to unlock the file and access all emails and attachments safely.
