If repairing your Microsoft 365 programs didn't resolve your issue, move on to the next step. If installing the latest updates didn't resolve your issue, move on to the next step. For example, the first time you try to Dismiss All on a list of reminders, Outlook asks you if you're sure you want to do that. If you don't choose an option on that dialog box, Outlook won't let you do anything else.

If it does not, proceed to the next solution. If the Outlook issue "outlook keeps crashing Windows 10" persists. You can proceed with the methods on this list. Once PSTs start climbing past 2 GB, things get shaky. Outlook slows down, crashes randomly, or fails to load entirely.

You can start Outlook in safe mode, disable your add-ins, and then try to open Outlook normally. Starting Outlook in safe mode, which starts Outlook without add-ins loaded, can tell you if an add-in is the source of the problem. For a short intro about how to access and read the Event Viewer in Windows, see this Quick Tip. If these methods dose not work, you can also try a third party tool, Kernel for Outlook PST Repair tool. If anyone finds a more permanent solution, I would appreciate it.

If so, wait a short time (usually two or three minutes) to see if Outlook starts working again. Sometimes you’ll open Outlook and then for no apparent reason, it will freeze or Fix Outlook Support shut itself down. There are quite a few different causes for this, but one of the most common is a defective add-in. Here’s how to disable add-ins in Outlook even when it keeps crashing.

Sometimes, when Outlook isn’t working right, a simple restart can help. When you turn your computer off and on again, Outlook and your computer may solve many problems. As a result, it helps to clear out any issues or things that might be causing trouble, like when you clean up a messy room.

If Outlook is unresponsive, not opening, or is crashing without any morning you can repair using the tried and tested methods provided here. Occasionally, classic Outlook tries to run a process in the background. Auto-archive, sending and receiving a very large attachment, or running some of the other mailbox tools can all be done in the background. Check the status bar at the bottom of the screen to see if another process is running. If so, Fix Outlook Support wait a short time (usually two or three minutes) to see if Outlook starts working again. The steps to access the repair tool vary depending on your operating system.

While Outlook has limited built-in options, they often fail when dealing with severely damaged or orphaned files. It enables you to recover data from damaged OST files and convert them into accessible PST format, preserving the original folder structure and formatting. ScanPST.exe is a useful tool that can help you repair and restore corrupt or damaged PST file. However, it may fail if the PST file is severely corrupt, oversized (larger than 2 GB), and/or encrypted. In such cases, you use an advanced Outlook PST repair tool, such as Stellar Repair for Outlook, to repair severely damaged and/or large PST file with complete integrity and precision.

You can even migrate PST files to Office 365, email servers, and web email clients with the help of this software. If all the above methods were unsuccessful, you could take a closer look at the Outlook data file instead. You can easily use ScanPST to examine and repair your PST file. If that does not work you can try using SFWare PST repair software. You can create a new Outlook Data File and drag the Fix Outlook Support items in the Lost and Found folder into the new data file.

If you can't choose any of the menu options, type inside an email message, calendar event, or contact, Outlook may have frozen. There are three steps you can take to try to get Outlook working again. We recommend setting Windows Update to automatically download and install recommended updates. Bug fixes, new features, and performance enhancements are released regularly. There are a number of possible reasons for Outlook to behave this way.
