Question Microsoft Outlook Error

[Nigel94]

Got the error below when I start outlook.

"Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the outlook window. The set of folders cant be opened. The attempt to log on to Microsoft Exchange has failed.

Re-installing Office or Outlook would seem to be the most basic thing you could try.

If there is an exchange server involved, you will need to contact whoever is running it. If this is a personal account, I suggest Microsoft support.

You may see that error when the .ost has become corrupted as well. Deleting the .ost and restarting will cause Outlook to recreate it.

Thanks for your reply. Is there a way to reinstall/uninstall outlook only?

That depends a lot on how you installed it, but for the most part no Outlook is pretty well integrated into Office. You can just try a repair on the existing installation.

What server you're trying to log into?
