Outlook encountered a problem and needs to close

[Wartuhi]

Each time I try to open a new email, the dialog box opens "Microsoft Outlook
has encoutnered a oproblem and needs to close. Send error report?
I have reinstalled Microsoft office and it worked for 1 day, now doing it
again.

Does the same thing happen starting Microsoft Outlook in safe mode?

How to:
* Select Start > Run
* Type: outlook.exe /safe
* OK button

This did not work. Could not start in safe mode. Dialog box said "Cannot find
outlook.exe/safe
tried typing "C:\Programfiles\microsoft office\OFFICE11\outlook.exe" /safe
in the run box on advice from son. Outlook opened but idalog box "Microsfot
outlook has encountered a problem and needs to close" popped up at first
click.

Okay, I will assume that the same issue happens under safe mode. Please try
a detect & repair via Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Microsoft
Office*.

* Do a repair or reinstall of the product.

This did not work. Could not start in safe mode. Dialog box said
"Cannot find outlook.exe/safe

You did not include the space in front of the /safe switch.

outlook.exe /safe
