Hello! I have been attempting to start Outlook 2013 minimized for about 3 hours now. I have done extensive googling to no avail. What I have found does not work on my system, I am using Win 8 Pro WMC. I have tried the shortcut method and the Task scheduler method. Maybe I am doing things wrong? Can anyone please help me?

Also, is outlook maximized / full screen? It won't work if it is. (It should work if you use min to tray but test it without that setting enabled.)

Is Outlook set to startup in the inbox?

Hi! Thanks for taking my question - here we go.

I have "Hide when minimized" checked on my system tray icon.

That's not the same thing that you say not to use correct?

Where is the minimize to tray option, in the shortcut "properties" ?

Also, I believe my outlook does start up in the inbox.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to resolving this issue!

It's the same thing - it used to be minimize to tray and it's a hard habit to break. sorry.

Try turning hide when minimized off and seeing if the shortcut to start minimized works.
