    The answer for me was to simply update Office - open any application that will open, select "Account" and from that update, even though it was already tagged for automatic updates.

    That usually means you did not put a space between Outlook and /safe. If you leave out the space, Windows thinks its all one word and cannot find it. So:

    Outlook /safe

    Outlook /resetnavpane

    This happens to me on a regular basis. I open Task Manager, I then close MS Outlook task that is running. This then allows me to open Outlook again.

    I am having the same problem. All of a sudden Outlook stopped working on my PC. I rebooted. Clicking on icon in system tray on programmes listing sees the "loading ring" appear and turn for a couple of seconds before nothing.

    I followed the advice about pressing Win and R, and entering either "Outlook.exe /resetnavpane" or "Outlook.exe /safe", but in both cases get an error mode telling me Windows cannot find the file and asking me to check the spelling.

    Please advise what I should do next.

    Thanks
