Method 4: Using a script

You can also use a script to save emails from Outlook to your desktop. Here's an example of a VBA script that you can use:

1. Open the Visual Basic Editor in Outlook by pressing Alt+F11 or by navigating to the "Developer" tab in the ribbon and clicking on the "Visual Basic" button.
2. In the Visual Basic Editor, create a new module by clicking on "Insert" > "Module" (or press Alt+F11).
3. Paste the following code into the module:

   Sub SaveEmail()
    Dim olApp As New Outlook.Application
    Dim olMail As Outlook.MailItem
    Set olMail = olApp.CreateItem(0)
    olMail.Body = "This is a test email"
    olMail.SaveAs "C:\Desktop\Email.eml"
    Set olMail = Nothing
    Set olApp = Nothing
   End Sub

4. Replace the email body with the actual email you want to save.
5. Save the module by clicking on "File" > "Save" (or press Ctrl+S).
6. To run the script, click on the "Run" button (or press F5) in the Visual Basic Editor.

Note: The script above saves the email as an EML file. You can modify the script to save the email as a MSG file by changing the file extension to ".msg".
