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?

    Hi Owen, I feel the same way, every time it does it I have to completely sign off when I do a screen pops up and says Outlook is trying to sign off, close anyway? I say yes. it signs off I sign in back on and it works again for whatever time if feels like it until next time which is closer together than before. good luck! I can't deal with their support; it drives me nuts so I will have to deal with the issue.

    Why can't I open my outlook intermittently it works often but at least once or twice a week it goes out for hours or even a day. I am tired of paying for something that doesn't work too often for me.

    Thanks for all the comments. The problem/solution was actually a lot simpler than I thought. The problem was Outlook had not (completely) closed. I found the icon hidden in the System Tray on the right side of the Task Bar. Once I was able to completely close the program it opened right up. So the reason it wasn't opening was because it was still partially open or closed.

    I went ahead and created a new profile and moved everything over to the new profile and reinstalled Office 365. All works now like it is supposed to.

    Thank you for your response.

    There seems to be a problem with the latest (insider) update.

    Outlook Crashes on Launch - Microsoft Community

    Thanks for the hint. Indeed I uses the inside channel. Switching back to the release channel fixed my problem!
