Ronald Green

Hi there

Help please!

After installing the 8 Microsoft Office released upodates on 01/05/2009 my
Outlook 2007 stopped working with the message "Microsoft Office Outlook has
stopped working"

I have tried a detect and repair but I cannot access Outlook at all. I am
using Microsoft Vista Home Premium.

I also attempted a system restore which was succesful but Outlook still
returned the same message

Any help or advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks in anticipation

If you installed outlook as part of a suite, office diagnostics from any
other the other apps should take care of outlook too. Once you do that, if
outlook fails to run, does it work in safe mode? Do you have antivirus
software scanning incoming email?

Hi there

Thankyou for the prompt reply.

I ran the Office Diagnostics Suite and all tests passed. Outlook would still
not start.

Outlook will not start either in Safe Mode.

Yes I have antivirus (Avira) software scanning incoming e-mail

do you get any error messages? Look in the event viewer for problems.

I'd try a new profile. A no mail profile should be enough to see if you can
get outlook up and running. (Make a new profile called No Mail and cancel
the wizard when it wants to add a mail acct.) This will tell us if its
corrupt support files. If it works in no mail, find and rename the files in
both Outlook folders under your user profile
(http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/filepath.htm if you need help finding
them) and try your own profile again.

Sorry about that. It's at C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office12\MSPST32.DLL. Delete or rename and try outlook again - you
may need to use office diagnostics first though.

do you get any error messages? Look in the event viewer for problems.

I'd try a new profile. A no mail profile should be enough to see if
you can get outlook up and running. (Make a new profile called No Mail
and cancel the wizard when it wants to add a mail acct.) This will
tell us if its corrupt support files. If it works in no mail, find and
rename the files in both Outlook folders under your user profile
(http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/filepath.htm if you need help
finding them) and try your own profile again.

Yes it was Outlook Safe Mode

Thanks and any other ideas?

Ron

Thats Outlook Safe Mode, not win safe mode - just in case

Hi there

Thankyou for the prompt reply.

I ran the Office Diagnostics Suite and all tests passed. Outlook
would still not start.

Outlook will not start either in Safe Mode.

Ron

Yes I have antivirus (Avira) software scanning incoming e-mail
If you installed outlook as part of a suite, office diagnostics
from any other the other apps should take care of outlook too.
Once you do that, if outlook fails to run, does it work in safe
mode? Do you have antivirus software scanning incoming email?

Help please!

After installing the 8 Microsoft Office released upodates on

Well... after it works for a day the next day office report that it stopped working. Maybe someone can help me. I'm running Windows 7 RC, but i put outlook in compatibility mode and still nothing. It worked for a couple of days, and after those i get this error. The fix you provided above does't work by the way.

file gets recreated and I get the same error.

I already created a new profile
