When I receive an email and select its attachment, Outlook automatically switches to the Attachments tab.
I hardly use any of the commands on the Attachments tab and I much rather like to stay on the more useful Home or Message tab so that I can directly Reply, Categorize, Archive, Move, apply a Quick Step, or whatever without the need for an extra click.
Can I make Outlook stay on the Home or Message tab when I select an attachment?

I'm trying to locate the Inbox Repair Tool (scanpst.exe) for Outlook 2010 but when I look in the correct location, I don't see it there.
In fact, I only see a couple of files listed in the Office14 folder and even OUTLOOK.EXE isn't listed there.
Why isn't SCANPST.EXE or even OUTLOOK.EXE found on my computer?
Or even more important; How am I supposed to repair my pst-file now?

I've scanned my pst-file with scanpst.exe and it displays the following error;
”Internal errors were found in this file. They must be repaired for this file to work correctly.”
I've chosen repair and I get the “Repair Completed” feedback after running it. But when I check my pst-file for errors directly after that, I still get the same error notice.
How can I completely fix my pst-file?

We've set the Windows sound scheme to "No Sounds" as we are not to have any default sounds going off all day (I share the room with 5 other people). But now every time an email arrives, the computer still makes a beeping sound which is even more annoying.
We cannot turn off the sound completely either as for some things we are still allowed to have sound alerts (in fact, it is required).
How can we get rid of the beep?

When I look at my Outlook folder list on the left, I see most of my mailboxes are named after the email addresses that they receive emails for. I also have a pst-file that is called “My Outlook Data File”.
These names are quite long and thus get truncated unless I widen the Folder Pane. Especially since some of my mailboxes only differ in the domain part, I prefer to shorten or otherwise customize these mailbox names.
How can I change the names for my mailboxes and pst-file?

Often times, I receive invitations for recurring meetings that have no end date set so they will go on forever in my Calendar. It’s actually not that surprising considering that “No end date” is the default selection.
I really would like the organizer to put more thought into this. Sometimes the original organizer has even left the company and we still have these recurring meetings left in our Calendars.
As this is such a problem for us, I actually have multiple related questions about this;
- Can I change the default recurrence pattern for meetings and appointments that I create in Outlook? Currently it is always set to “No end date” and sometimes even forget to change it myself.
- Is there anything I can do against this as a recipient of these invitations?
- Is there anything our administrator can do to prevent these meetings from being send out?
