Step 1: Prepare Outlook Express:

Select "Microsoft Exchange" as the export format and click "Next."
Choose the folder you want to export, then click "Next."
Select a location to save the exported file and provide a name for it.
Click "Next" and then "Finish."
A message might appear indicating that the export process will create a copy of the messages in the Exchange format. Click "OK."
Step 4: Import to Outlook:
Open Microsoft Outlook.
Click on "File" > "Open & Export" > "Import/Export."
Choose "Import from another program or file" and click "Next."
Select "Outlook Data File (.pst)" and click "Next."
Browse and locate the exported .pst file from Outlook Express.
