Outlook 2007 Upgrade to color Categories

[Carl]

I am using Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, I went to Personal
Folders/Properties under the General tab I pressed the "Upgrade to Color
Categories". There was a warning that this may take a significant amount of
time… How long is this “significant amount†supposed to take? I upgraded
over 3 months ago and I still have a notification in the lower right hand
corner of Outlook stating “Upgrading multicolored For Follow Up Flags to
Color Categories...â€

My Outlook 2007 is configured to receive & send mail from 3 different
POP3/SMTP servers, plus a Hotmail account and a Office Live account. I don’t
see any way of “Uninstalling or Undoing†the upgrade and I can no longer see
the Send/Receive status located in the same corner.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

It's usually measured in minutes, not days. Have you tried Office
diagnostics?

Folders/Properties under the General tab I pressed the "Upgrade to Color
Categories" again and now outlook has seemed to fix the problem.
