Hi All,

I have an Archive folder which appears on my Folder List, I would like to
delete/close the folder, but when I click the folder I get the following
error message:

Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Outlook could not access the
specified folder location.

I have applied hotfix 814556 to no avail, I have also checked the Data file
section and this archive file is not listed. Any suggestions?

TIA

Outlook 2002 sp2/Windows 2000
 
You can either follow the instructions listed at
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/oltrble.htm#disconnectpst to try to remove
the "ghost", or you can just create a new mail profile. If you try the
instructions in the article and delete the wrong thing, a new mail profile
will fix it. You won't lose any data; you'll just need to point the new
profile to your .PST file.

Just create a new profile, then...add your .PST file and e-mail accounts to
it, and delete the old profile.
