About OAB files
OAB files are a type of Outlook Address Book file, which contain contacts and other information related to Outlook. These files are used to store information about contacts, distribution lists, and other Outlook data. OAB files are typically generated by Outlook and can be imported into other applications. However, due to the proprietary nature of the file format, it can be difficult to convert OAB files into other formats.
The OAB file format is proprietary to Microsoft Outlook and has the file extension .oab. It is not possible to open OAB files directly, but they can be converted into other formats such as vCard (.vcf), Comma Separated Values (.csv), or Excel (.xlsx). To convert OAB files, you can use Microsoft Outlook or specialized software such as Stellar Outlook Address Book Converter or various tools.
When converting OAB files, it is important to consider the size of the file, as large OAB files can be difficult to convert. Additionally, some information may be lost when converting OAB files, such as contact photos and other formatting.
