2. In the Import and Export Wizard, click "Export to a file", and click "Next".
3. Click "Comma Separated Values", and click "Next" again.
4. Select a folder you want to export the emails from, click "Next".
5. Click "Browse" to select a folder and give a file name, click "OK". Then click "Next".
6. Click "Finish".
Tip: If the Finish button is greyed out, make sure to check the option that says Export “E-Mail messages” from folder.
Once completed, your email data is saved as a CSV file. You can open it in Excel and, if needed, use File > Save As to convert it into an Excel Workbook (.xlsx).

1. Select the messages you want to export to separate Excel files, click "Kutools" > "Bulk Processing" > "Save Selected Emails as Files in Various Formats like PDF".
2. In the "Save message as other files" dialog, select one path to save the new file, and check "Excel format" option.
