Answer 1

Hi

I think this is a Sync Client problem, but anyway try this

(*BACKUP*) PLEASE, your REGISTRY Also

1. Close outlook completely (or reboot and don't open it)
2. Backup your systems registry
3. open regedit
4. Goto "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib{00062FFF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"
5. Delete the and only THE Key "9.3" or just rename it
6. close regedit
7. reopen outlook.

HTH

Answer 2

Hey Joao,

Went back and just did a re-name of the Key "9.3" folder to "Dumb"

Re-naming seemed to be the trick instead of deleting the folder.

Outlook has been stable now for over 24 hours of heavy use.

Thanks,..Again,..Ken

Hi!

As as said before:

Answer 4

Joao,

Spoke too soon.

Everything seemed to be working fine, until I was re-setting my sync. options in Outlook 2007 tools.

Then the same issues/error codes cropped up.

I deleted the Key "9.3"

Any insight now?

Thanks,..Ken
