My Outlook 2000 SP3 v. 9.0.0.6627 closes itself in about 10 seconds every
time I start the application.
I have tred re-installing the application from CD and have also tried
re-installing the whole Office Suite from CD. I have also tried a Repair.
Nothing makes any difference.
There seems to be no article on MS website which responsds to a search of
"Outlook Closes".
Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.
I had a very nice popup blocker that would do this
(to me).
It worked off of window titles and if some program
like Outlook was accidentally listed it would close
it -- only it didn't take 10 seconds.
10 seconds starting from when? (My Outlook can
take several minutes just to get started....)
What do you actually see in those 10 seconds?
"Outlool closes" is probably to general to be of much use.
Also post your OS & Version, Outlook version (help about)
and any service packs etc installed.
Tell us about any popup blockers, trojans blockers, virus
scanners, or OUTLOOK ADD-IN you are running.
BTW, if (modern) Outlook were crashing, it should offer one of two
responses the NEXT time it loads: the file will be improperly
shut down and it will warn that it needs to rebuild the post office
files.
OR it will ask if you wish to start in safe mode (Outlook itself, not
the OS safe mode) since it knows it crashed.
Absent both of these, my guess is that "something" is shutting down
Outlook -- properly from Outlook's perspective -- but this is just
a guess.
You might Google (something like) this:
[ site:microsoft.com outlook troubleshooting 2003 | xp | 2000 ]
Take out the XP or 2000 if you are running Outlook 2003 or switch
to "Outlook 2003" to be more specific.
