Microsoft Outlook is easily one of the best email clients we have today, and it’s available both on Windows and Mac. Unfortunately, if you want to migrate from Outlook on Mac to Outlook on Windows, you can’t transfer your mailbox data directly. Even if you are using the same version of Outlook on both platforms, you can’t use your mailbox data interchangeably. This is because Outlook for Mac stores mailbox data in OLM format while Outlook for Windows stores mailbox data in PST.
If you want to transfer your Outlook mailbox data from Mac to Windows, you have to convert your OLM file to PST first. Stellar Converter for OLM software is designed for this specific purpose and it makes the migration easier.
