Greetings.

 

Computer was just built for me; running Win 7, AVG free. Next program tried installing, Outlook 2007. Finally had enough of password pop-ups and server rejected my login errors. Searched the web, found numerous fixes. None worked. Wanting to get Outlook 2007 back to out-of-box state, short of reinstalling. Do not have disc. Maybe something is corrupted somewhere. Wanting to remove all traces that I have tried to use it so I can start over clean. Is there anyway to do this?

Hello tjmcs,

 

 

Perhaps these steps can help?

 

 

Step 1

Close Microsoft Outlook 2007.

 

Step 2

Click the Start button and select "Computer" from the menu to open the native file manager.

 

Step 3

Select the system drive -- usually "C:" -- from the left pane.

 

Step 4

Open the "Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook" folder, where "UserName" is the name of your user account.

 

Step 5

Right-click the "outcmd.dat" file and select "Rename" from the context menu.

 

Step 6

Type "outcmd.old" as the new name and press "Enter" to rename the file.

 

Step 7

Launch Microsoft Outlook 2007, a new outcmd.dat file is automatically created, and all settings are reset to their default values.

 

 

 

Good luck!

Any luck?

Sorry for delay, Fusionbomb.Usually get an email when someone replies. Did not get it this time.

Will try. Where I am at now, is I have deleted the profile. Now, when I try to create a new one, I get the password pop-up when it looks for a server.

Another possible solution:

 

 

1. Go into the two %userprofile% microsoft\outlook folders and delete all of the files. (http://www.outlook-t...er/filepath.htm)

 

2. Go to Control panel, Mail and delete the profiles.

 

3. Go into the registry and delete the outlook key - then do a repair install.  The key is at: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook.

(There is a second outlook key with addin info - that shouldn't need to be deleted. )
