Windows cannot open my Outlook -'invalid XML, view can not be load
Version of Outlook?
Type of mail account? What exactly do you do to get to this issue? If you are actually talking about OWA (Outlook Web Access), then the correct newsgroup is; exchange.clients -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "Mambi81" wrote in message ...

That seems to be a pretty weak response from an MVP-Outlook. This error is
nothing new to Outlook, as many users have come across it. To ask "What exactly do you do to get to this issue?" is pretty lazy...The error occurs when you try to open Outlook....duh. Some things you can try a Open Outlook in safe mode - Start Run outlook.exe /safe Open Outlook with add-ons disabled - Start Run outlook.exe /a Run the scanpst.exe repair tool on you .PST files - You can do a windows search for scanpst.exe : - Your .pst files are usually located in C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook If none of those resolves the issue, it would be best to create a new profile in Outlook and reimport your .PST file into that new profile. You will have to set up your email account information (email address, PW, incoming/outgoing servers, ect). After you import your old .PST file, go ahead and Archive the hell out of it, one main reason you received this error in the first place would probably be due to the file size of the .PST, not 100% sure, but it seems to be the case whenever I have helped people out with this particular error. To create a new Outlook profile, open the Control Panel, double-click on the Mail icon, click the Show Profiles... button, Click Add... , Type in the name of the new profile (your choice), Click OK, then choose that new profile from the drop-down menu at the bottom so that Outlook will "Always use this profile" when it opens.

When this happened to me I used procmon to trace the error to the file:
\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outloo k\Outlook.xml This file contained binary junk. I had just recovered from a HDD crash and had to use CHKDSK /F to repair the damage. |

So, you should try to fix this issue as quick as possible. There are two ways to perform this task i.e. either use inbuilt Scanpst.exe tool of Outlook or use third party Outlook PST repair software in case the inbuilt tool fail to resolve the issue. All the best! |
