How Can I Extract Attachments from MSG Files Without Opening Each Email Manually?

I have hundreds of MSG files, and each one contains different attachments. Opening every email individually and saving attachments is taking too much time. I need a faster method to extract all attachments in bulk from MSG files.

When you have hundreds of MSG files, opening each email one by one just to save attachments isn’t realistic. It takes too much time, and it’s easy to miss a few files in the process.
This usually happens because MSG files store attachments inside each email, so there’s no single “bulk export” option in basic email viewers.

A simple manual way is to use Outlook:

• Put all MSG files in one folder
• Open them in Outlook
• Manually save attachments from each email
  
  But honestly, this becomes slow very quickly, and mistakes happen when there are many files or mixed attachment types.
  For bulk extraction, some people use tools like MailVare Free MSG Attachment Extractor, which scans all MSG files in one go and saves attachments together instead of opening each email. It helps when you’re dealing with invoices, reports, or mixed document types.
  One small tip from experience: always organize output into separate folders by file batch; otherwise later it becomes tricky to track which attachment came from where.
