How do I create a new one?

Another thing .. I just tried to email a URL from IE8 and it did not do
anything even thought Outlook was open.

Diane:

Ok ... I seem to be cooking. When I went back in to do the new profile it
asked me to re-set up everything. I did see that I could import the PST
files so I told it to import the newest. It found both had not closed
properly (When backup had not worked since 6/29 I found a message stating
that the PST file could not be copied as it was open in another application
... which I knew was incorrect as Outlook was closed) ... I checked the
processes and found that outlook.exe was still running when outlook was not
open. I 'ended' the process. It did import both my PST files and I
downloaded all the add-ins and re-installed them. Everything seems to be
working fine. course, hindsight is 20/20 but I think the problem is that
outlook was not closing properly is what started the problem. I had this
problem several months ago but a fix did seem to fix it. In more recent
months I was plagued with an automatic restart, normally when I tried to
dismiss one calendar task (dismiss all did not cause the error). I am hoping
outlook will settle down now.

Thanks for your help.

Importing is never the correct way of adding the contents of a PST to Outlook.
You either simply add the existing PST while using the Mail applet (using the
Data Files button) or you add it after starting Outlook with File>Open>Outlook
Data File.

After cleaning out duplicate messages that all went into my inbox (lost my
Rules) I figured that out. Highsight is definitely 2020.

Is there anyway to copy rules from an old profile to the new one? I had an
export of rules but it was 2 years old.

No, but if you still have the old profile and old pst, open and export it,
assuming it will open.

As for outlook not closing (and that may be a big part of your problem),
what addins do you use besides backup?
