asked on Windows Live Mail to Outlook 2010 Windows 10
I have an older computer with Windows 10 using Windows Live Mail.
I need to bring the folders and messages into Outlook 2010.
When I do an "export", I can select Microsoft Exchange to get toward Outlook.
But it never asks: where should I put the result?
I did set up a new mail profile but I don't ever see a connection and no new .pst file either.
What should I be doing?

Tom Cieslik: That's very helpful! Thank you.
After "Finish" what can I expect to see or find?
Here's my plan:
The old computer has Outlook 2003 and Windows Live Mail 2011.
The new computer has Outlook 2010.
Presumably the process will create a new .pst file or add to an existing one.
I would plan to move a .pst file from the old to the new and then bring it into the new Outlook.
The first pass in doing this with both programs open on the old computer ended with some sort of problem that included concerns about not enough disk space. There is plenty of disk space. So, I'm trying it now with the critical folders only

Thanks all! In the end I used the tool. Not perfect but it got the job done. The new .pst files were nearly 50GB.
