After upgrading to Windows 10, I can no longer start Outlook and get the following error:
Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window. The set of folders cannot be opened. File access is denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file
C:\Users\Robert\Documents\Outlook Files\Robert.pst.
How do I give myself access to my own pst-file again?
When I want to grant someone permissions to my Exchange mailbox, I found that I can either do this via the Delegates options dialog or via a right click on the folder-> Properties-> tab: Permissions.
I noticed that the people for which I set the permissions per folder do not show up in the Delegates dialog. Is that correct?
What are the differences between setting the permissions via the Delegate dialog and the Permissions tab?
I noticed that Outlook now converts typed smiley faces in actual colorful smiley face emoji when composing a message.
That’s cute and all but there are of course many more emoji and more constantly being added. I therefor had the following questions regarding emoji support in Outlook;
For my work, I regularly work with files that are blocked by default by Outlook. I've been able to unblock them via the Level1Remove Registry value but then I'm still being prompted to save them to disk first before I can open them.
I understand that completely unblocking them poses a certain risk, but as these are mainly shortcuts (lnk-files) and script files (such as vbs-files, which I've configured to open with Notepad by default), my increased productivity will outweigh the theoretical increased risk by this change.
Is there any way to completely unblock these Level1 attachments?
I’m using both the Facebook and LinkedIn Social Connector Provider in Outlook. Currently, when the contact both exists in Facebook and LinkedIn, it shows the Facebook picture.
However, since people tend to use more professional portrait photos on LinkedIn, I’d prefer to get the Linked picture instead.
Is there any way to change this?
The somewhat huge message header in Outlook 2013 has been an eyesore and annoyance to some since the release of Outlook 2013, especially for people who prefer to have the Reading Pane at the bottom.
The November update not only brought back some highly missed To-Do Bar functionality but also quite some major changes and options to the message header.
Did you find the minimize option for the message header already?
In Outlook 2010 and previous I was able to set a pst-file as the default delivery location for my Exchange account.
In Outlook 2016, I no longer see the “Change Folder” button when I select my Exchange account.
How can I still deliver my Exchange e-mails directly to a pst-file?
I'm using Office 365 but I seem unable to share and sync my mail, calendar and contact items between multiple computers even though I'm allowed to install it on up to 5 devices.
I was told that Office 365 was "Cloud Based" and I’m signed in with my Microsoft Account to Office, so shouldn't I be able to do this?
We're using Cisco WebEx for on-line meetings. For this I used to have a WebEx Toolbar in Outlook to directly schedule on-line meetings from within Outlook.
However, I no longer see this WebEx Toolbar nor does it show as a Ribbon tab in Outlook 2010.
How can I make the WebEx integration available in Outlook again?
