Welcome to our forum!
To further identify the problem, please provide the following information:
- What's the version of your Outlook? (File > Office Account > About Outlook). Please make sure you have upgraded your Outlook to the latest version.
- Is your account a Microsoft 365 account? And is this the only specific message that can't be opened? If so, is the encryption method of this email Microsoft 365 Message Encryption or S/MIME encryption? Or any others?
- If possible, please provide a screenshot of the error for our better research.(To avoid privacy disclosure, please hide your personal information)
