Outlook 2010 wont always open

I have Office 2010 on Windows 7 pc and at least 3 times per day my Outlook will not open. I have to Force shutdown then reboot and open it in Safe Mode. It drives me crazy. Can this be fixed?

    Thank you so much Jane. For some reason (and this could be the problem) I did not have the .pst file anywhere on my c drive. This could be from when I had a computer crash some time ago and my back up system saved it to something else (I have no idea what) I use Carbonite. So I went to ScanPST.exe Fix and downloaded the free version and I think it may have fixed it but I am not sure. Time will tell. As I said before - it happends periodically, usually when I really need to get into my email. I will keep you posted Jane. Again, Thank you for taking the time to address this problem.

Hi Tami,

You can fix your Outlook problem with the help of Scanpst.exe .

With The help of Scanpst.exe you can repair your pst file just run the program and if everything is ok you can recover your PST File and after taht you can open your Outlook without any problem.

As The .pst file corrution is the problem of your not opening Outlook so after the pst repair ther is no isues .

If you did not repair your .pst file with help of Scanpst.exc program don't worry there so many third party data recovery for Outlook PST you can also try this type of software one of them which is personally used by me is Kernel for PST Repair you can try this software from here

Yup....!!!
There are times when the Outlook application will not respond and this might be because of some of the hardware or software reasons. But the worse part is that it will make the data in-accessible so there is always a need to resolve the corruption. you can use the inbuilt utility that is scanpst.exe to fix the corruption but in some of the severe cases of corruption this may fails to fix the corruption.
Then you can use the PST Repair Tool to resolve the corruption. This is a powerful utility that will make the recovery of the severely damaged data with an ease. And this is an all in one solution for corruption and damage. Further information about the software can be gathered from : https://www.prbuzz.com/computer-software/102972-pst-repair-tool.html

Contacts transfer from samsung b7320 to outlook 2010

might be this will help you


This works for me on Windows 7 RTM x64.

1. Install Office 2010 x64.
2. Open Outlook and configure your profile and let it do its thing.
3. When done, exit Outlook
4. Install WMDC and click OK to ignore the setup error that Outlook is not installed.
5. BACKUP your profile/PST file!!
6. Install Outlook 2007 (ONLY Outlook 2007, not any of the other apps and not any of the shared stuff like OCR, etc.)
7. Sync your device. Click OK if prompted that your profile was created with a newer version of Outlook and may contain data not usable in this version. IN MY EXPERIENCE, there has been no adverse effect that I can notice.
8. Disconnect your device and reopen Outlook 2010, and ignore the message that "Either Outlook is not installed...", as Outlook should come right up after that.

To sync again, simply EXIT Outlook 2010 before connecting your device.

Setup cannot find outlook.en-us\outlook.mui.msi

The quickest way is to see if it's located on your drive. Press the Windows key and s, type the Outlook.Mui.Msi in the search box and click search. If it finds it write down the location. You can right click the file and select open fine location to take you where it's located. What might be happing if office was installed via CD, if that is the case you will need a copy of that CD.

It is not a problem but a question. Can I install Outlook in windows 7 and will ntelos support it as my mailbox?

Hi,

Yes, but you will need to make sure if the version of Outlook that you have is comaptible to windows 7.
Officially only Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 are supported to run on Windows 7. This is similar to Windows Vista which also did not support earlier versions of Outlook. You can install a version prior to Outlook 2003 on Windows 7 though but there are several issues which you could encounter.
In addition to these version requirements, even with Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 there are several compatibility issues which you could encounter on Windows 7. The most critical of these issues have been taken care off in prior service pack releases. So before starting Outlook on Windows 7, make sure your first apply at least Service Pack 3 for Office 2003 and Service Pack 2 for Office 2007.


Hope this will help...Your response is very much appreciated...
