Outlook 365 not opening in Windows 11

I noticed that Outlook did not open automatically in Windows 11 like it should when I rebooted, so I tried to start it manually. That didn't work either. Not even running "outlook /safe" worked.

Am I missing something here?

    Common issue, why MS hasnt fixed this is a head scratcher. Here are a few things to try that have worked for me. (1) get into "Task Manager" and End all tasks with "Outlook" in their name. Now try opening Outlook. (2) Reset Outlook. But you'll have to re-enter all your email account info. (3) Sometimes a simple reboot does the trick. Warning, eventually the problem comes back. Frustrating issue.

    Yes - this works. Although I chose 'quick repair' - not 'online repair' - and that worked too!

    Thank you @David Blaney - your solution (Win+R then outlook.exe /resetnavpane) solved it for me!
    My incident was caused due to my machine not being able to un-hibernate, ever since upgrading to Windows 11.

    This time I had Outlook and several other apps open when I hibernated the machine, the subsequent restart failed, and I had to reboot the machine.

    Only to then discover that Outlook was hanging on launch. (sigh).

    None of the above worked for me but resetting the nav pane solved this for me. Win+R - outlook.exe /resetnavpane
