I finally ended up with what I wanted to avoid: having to uninstall and reinstall MS OFFICE from scratch and setting up Outlook again, as well with all the accounts and customisations.Īnd even after that, MS Outlook still hangs when exiting during sync, but interestingly, after a restart it will work ONCE! If u exit Outlook a second time during the same session while it syncs, it will hang. He screwed up my PC (changed startup process - and did not reverse that, amongst other things) and Outlook big time (removed couple of Registry entries, profile entries, etc, with the result, that iCloud for Windows malfunctioned and most of my mailaccounts If you close it, sign out, and then relog, if you get another. The second level support of MS finally admitted that it is a glitch and also that many customers complain about the hang if Outlook is exited while being synced. Don't worry, this won't permanently delete your accountit'll just remove your account from the Outlook app until you're ready to sign back in. Outlook wont work after closing on Windows RDS session host server, have to wait about 15mins QUESTION If you open it immediately afterwards, sometimes it might work, sometimes youll get a message that it cant load the folders and that it was unable to connect to exchange. So I got in touch with Microsoft, 2x about 1h.Īfter various tries of fixing the issue, changing stuff in registry, reloading the profile, etc
