Re: HELP!! Outlook won't load after Add-in

Have you tried using either a new profile or running scanpst.exe
against your PST file to find errors?

A COM addin shouldn't do anything like that. Have you looked at the
ItemsCB COM addin sample on the Resources page at www.microeye.com to
see how to properly build a COM addin using all the best practices?
