Outlook will not open when I click on the icon in my
window in XP. It has worked fine for years and nothing
was changed. Also, it works fine in other desktops for
other family members. For some reason it is only
performing incorrectly for me in my desktop. No error
message appears. Any suggestions of things to try?
 
1) try running scanpst.exe on your Personal Folder

2) try renaming outcmd.dat to .old and restart Outlook. All the Toolbars
will reset then. This is quite a common problem with Outlook . The default
location for this file is:
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook

3) try recreating the profile in Control Panel-> Mail-> button Show Profiles

4) try running Outlook with the /safe switch from your Start-> Run window.
When this works run Help-> Detect and Repair

5) try disabling individual add-ons in Tools-> Options-> tab Other-> button
