You might want to try splitting your PST file into smaller, more manageable files instead
of relying solely on archiving. Outlook doesn’t always shrink a PST automatically after
deleting or archiving emails. After splitting, you can use the built-in “Compact Now”
feature under Account Settings → Data Files to reclaim space. Also, consider moving large
attachments to cloud storage or local folders and replacing them with links—this often
makes a huge difference.

getting stuck, just like handling your PST before it locks you into constant freezes.
