What is a .PAB file?
The file extension .PAB stands for Personal Address Book. This type of file is used primarily by Microsoft email programs to store contact information. In a .PAB file, you can find details such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, and possibly other personal or organizational contact information. Unlike other data files used by Microsoft Outlook, such as emails or calendar entries, the .PAB file specifically holds contact information and is stored separately from these other types of data.
To open a .PAB file, you can use programs like Microsoft Outlook 365, Microsoft Exchange Server, or the newer versions of Microsoft Outlook (indicated as Microsoft Outlook 365+). These programs allow you to access and manage the contact information stored within the .PAB file, making it easier to send emails and organize your communications.
