    Outlook 2016 has "Outlook 2015" files

    My scanpst.exe appears to be corrupted. But when I looked for it in \Program Files\...Office 16, I found an Office 2015 folder there instead. There is an Office2016 folder under \Program Files x86\ (Which is puzzling as I am running Win10 x64), but the scanpst.exe found there by my search...

    :Managing contacts in Outlook 2016

    1) Is there a way to make Phone the default format for all contact lists in Outlook 2016? 2) Is there any way to tag or characterize contacts when I'm set up for IMAP? If not, how do I convert back to POP3 without losing any info? 3) Is there a way to automatically date new contacts as...

    Can I single-space the folder list?

    Outlook 2016 shows the folder list double- or triple-spaced, which greatly reduces the amount of info on the screen at once. Can this be changed to single-space?

    Addins slowing me down?

    Outlook 2016 keeps telling me that add-ins are slowing things down. When i follow the link, I get a list of add-ins--but as near as I can tell, they're already disabled. The only option shown for dealing with them is "always enable." How do I find what add-ins are currently a problem, and how...

    Outlook 2016 crashes at start

    I just recovered from a system crash a day or two back. I think Outlook worked OK the day after that (I'm not sure), but now it crashes within seconds of starting. I am running the Office 2016 version, in Win 10 Pro x64, with the account set up as IMAP. I had thought, based on experience when...

    Worksheet doesn't show on jumplist

    One of my Outlook 2016 worksheets does not show in the Recent Files jumplist and cannot be pinned. Since I use it a lot, how can I fix this? Is there a maximum number one can pin? I have 5 files pinned there now. (Using Win 10 Pro x64)

    Folder Pane problems

    1) The shortcuts listing at the top of the folder pane has disappeared--how do I get it back? 2) The folder listing is double-spaced, so it show half as many folders as I'd like. Is this fixable? I'm running Outlook 2016 under Windows 10 Pro x64

    Contacts folders, outlook 2016

    When I first set up Outlook 2003, I put my contacts in folders and subfolders (health, stores, business contacts, utilities, friends, etc.) At some point, that structure failed, and all contacts were at the same level under Contacts. When I switched to Outlook 2016, several of those folders...

    POP3 vs iMAP?

    I want to set up my email so that mail deleted from my phone or laptop is still available for me to see on my home PC, but mail I delete from the home PC (which uses Outlook 2016) will be gone from the other two. It's my understanding that this would require I set up the home machine as POP3...

    Outlook 2016 follow-up flags--how can I add dates?

    In outlook 2003, I could not only flag e-mails for follow-up but assign follow-up dates. Now that I use outlook 2016, I can't seem to do this. Did Microsoft eliminate this useful feature? Or did it just make it impossible to find? Is there any way to get this feature back?

    Outlook 2016 contact issues

    I recently switched from Outlook 2003 to outlook 2016. Not entirely an improvement! 1) I tend to have only one or two contacts per company. But the Telephone List contacts format (which I prefer) adds a header for each company, which wastes a lot of space. How can I defeat this? 2) For that...

    Cannot open or save calendar items

    I'm running Outlook 2003 under Win 7. After my monthly Win update, yesterday, I found I could not save new calendar items (error message said only "cannot save item"), could not open existing items, but could delete existing ones. Mail still works OK. (It may or may not be significant that I...

    Outlook 2003 can't open contacts.

    I just reinstalled my OS and all software on a new drive. I also relocated my Outlook 2003 PST file from the system drive to my data drive, and told Outlook where to find it. When I check my e-mail, All seems normal, but the message list only goes back to May 2014, and it does not show a...

    Promoting Outlook 2003 User Templates

    I have a user template I need frequently. Is there any way (in Outlook 2003) I can move it to the same menu as the standard forms library rather than having to click to the Personal Forms Library?

    W-a-a-y too many PSTs (Outlook 2003)

    I've been using Outlook 2003 for about 10 years, and have migrated it once or twice to new drives with new Win versions. Last time left me with two Personal Folders and Three Archive folders. I'm about to do it again, and I've discovered I have nearly 200 PST files. I need help deciding which...

    Change Debit to Credit in Outlook 2003?

    I can download statements as .CSV for use in Outlook. My bank lists my expenditures (such as checks and fees) as debits, my deposits as credits. But my credit cards list my expenditures as credits and my payments as debits. Is there a way to reverse the sign on all figures in a column, so I...

    Personal Folders Backup aftermath

    I used to use pfbackup when I was running Outlook 2003 under XP. But it's apparently not compatible with Windows 7, so I uninstalled it. Now, every time I start Outlook I'm told that "C:\users\myname\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Addins\c:\Progra~2\Office11\addings\outbak.dll is not a valid...
