Cannot start Microsoft
Outlook. Outlook requires Microsoft Outlook Express 4.01 or greater. You can
install Outlook Express by running Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel.
You could try searching Microsoft's knowledge-base, only to find the solutions
apply to Windows 2000. And Outlook Express is installed and running just fine
and you're running Windows XP! So, what to do? Read on for some resolutions to
this issue.
Instructions
Click
Start>Run>type regedit and hit Enter. Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{44BBAB40-CC51-11CF-AAFA-00AA00B6015C}.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{44BBAB40-CC51-11CF-AAFA-00AA00B6015C}.
Highlight
the registry key and then locate the REG_DWORD values is Installed under
Microsoft Outlook Express 6 and Mail News. If either of the values are set to
0, change them to 1. To do this, right click on the REG_DWORD values and select
Modify. In the Value Data form field, enter 1 and click OK. Close out regedit
and start Outlook.
Download POP3 or IMAP mailboxes (including SSL) to Exchange
Server.
But
wait! I have the registry key {44BBAB40-CC51-11CF-AAFA-00AA00B6015C}
but it's in a folder called AutorunsDisabled listed at the bottom of Installed
Components. Good; this step applies to you then. Download and install the
program Autoruns listed in the resources section (or if you ran Autoruns, run
it again).
Locate the file Autoruns.zip.
Right-click the file and then click "Extract All..." and save the
file in the default location. Click the "Extract" button. The
Autoruns folder opens. Double-click Autoruns.exe. Click "Run." Now,
locate the registry key mentioned in Step 1. Place a check next to each entry
of Outlook. Close out of Autoruns and double-click on your Outlook icon to
start Outlook.
