Outlook 2000 has quit responding and crashes

[Guest]

I am using Window XP. I began receiving messages that my drive was low on
memory, so I deleted some old files and programs. Now when I open Outlook,
it opens, but does not respond, then shuts down after a minute or two. Did I
delete something I shouldn't have? How do I fix it? I tried to repair it and
then reinstalled it, but it made no difference.

You should never directly delete programs - use uninstall instead. Without
knowing what you deleted, it's hard to say if you deleted something it needs
or not. if using Windows xp, see if system restore fixes the outlook
problems then remove the programs the correct way.

I deleted old document files, uninstalled unused programs, such as games or
those that we didn't use anymore.
