Two Personal Folders

[Andrew Chalk]

Through some convoluted process involving trying to move my data file I
appear to have ended up with two Personal Folders in the "All Mail Folders"
pane and one data store. I can't "Close" the second copy (it says 'The
operation failed. An object could not be found'). New items are only added
to one of the Personal Folders'

How do I delete the duplicate Personal Folders file/object?

Many thanks.

You can't. You corrupted your profile.
Create a new one and a Avoid whatever "convoluted process" you used to
corrupt your first profile.

Interesting. My registry was all binary keys so I created a new profile and
deleted the old one.

Regards,

Andrew

As I said, that's the only way to fix this in Outlook 2003 and above.
