    And the .dat file with the updated date and time is the one large one, the 348 Kb or so, file?

    Cannot Move Autocomplete File to New Computer

    Let's see if Outlook is using the .dat file. After opening Outlook on the new computer, try sending an email to an email address you've not sent to before, then close Outlook and see if the .dat file has the current time and date. If so, that shows it is using the 348 kb .dat file that you put in.

    Cannot Move Autocomplete File to New Computer

    What about this question from my previous post - f it does have the current time, then I would check the file size to see if it is the same size as the .dat file on the old computer, to make sure you did not somehow mess up the copy/rename. If still no luck, try using the NK2Edit software...

    Cannot Move Autocomplete File to New Computer

    That's odd, it has always worked for me. Sounds like you did it right, but to be sure - on the old computer, you went to RoamCache, copied the StreamAutocomplete*****.dat file with the latest date. Then you put that in RoamCache on the new computer, and re-named it with the same name as the...

    Move to Folder

    Not sure about your 2013, but my Outlook 2016 does not have Custom Keyboard Shortcut capability. In Word and I think in older Outlook, you get to it from File/Options/Customize Ribbon, and a Keyboard Shortcut button would appear in the lower right.

    Outlook 2016 Outlook randomly unhides from taskbar

    I don't see anything in those events that gives me any clue. I also tried to reproduce this by hiding Outlook when minimized, and setting the desktop background to change every minute, but it does not unhide on my computer.

    Outlook 2016 Outlook randomly unhides from taskbar

    I'm not seeing anything that I can make sense out of. But you are showing the xml view in the Details tab. What does it say in the General tab? also in the box at the top, what type of event is this? ie Information, Error, etc.

    Outlook 2016 Outlook randomly unhides from taskbar

    Something to consider trying is to use the Event Viewer (Start button>type Event Viewer). As soon as the program unhides, open the Event Viewer and look under Windows Logs (most likely in the subsection Application or System) for an event at the minute that it happened. It may give you a hint...

    Spam folder not showing in Outlook

    That was me in that thread. That account was not a Microsoft webmail, it was hosted by Hostgator and they had a spam filter that was creating the Junk Mail folder. I disabled it to fix the problem. Your issue seems to be different. My problem was with the desktop version of Outlook.

    Outlook 2010 Opening Mail Attachment

    This is most likely not an Outlook problem, but a Windows issue. You probably need to reset default app settings that were messed up by that install/uninstall. There are multiple ways to do this; You can pick a file type and reset the default for it, or pick an app and set it back to all its...

    Upgraded Outlook

    I was upgrading my wife's Win 10 computer, from Office 2016 to 2019. The install made me first uninstall the old version, because the new one was Click To Run. I was expecting to do a lot of work for setup, because she has 5 mail accounts, of all varieties, a separate pst to hold contacts and...

    Manual Archiving 2016

    I wonder if you could create a 2nd, temporary profile. Create just the POP account in it, accessing the existing POP data file. Then create the archive and move the old mail into it. Then go back to using the original profile, and provide access to the archive by opening it in the original profile.
