From: Alan on 20 Apr 2010 07:17 Hi Guy's. I was very tired and not thinking too well. I managed to delete the Bluesoleil from my task bar in Outlook 2000, don't ask me why but I did! I used to have on the task bar a synchronise, pull and other tabs which I never used and deselected them from the tools options menu. Stupidly I opened the commands and deleted the bluesoleil tool bar. Now of course Outlook launches until the end of loading the task bars and then reports that it found a problem and needs to close. Is there a way to put it right without having to reinstall it? is this part of Outlook or Windows? Any help would be very appreciated. . Submitted using http://www.outlookforums.com

When you post using a brain-dead posting host like outlookforums.com, please press Enter periodically to provide a line wrap. Your paragraphs each show as one big long line, making them difficult to read. You'd be better off using a real newsreader. With Outlook closed, try deleting the file outcmd.dat in %AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook and then restarting Outlook. If that doesn't work, try deleting (for XP) %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\extend.dat or (for Vista or 7) %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\extend.dat. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

Okay, I tried deleting both as suggested without success the error still persists, will a reinstall of Outlook put it back or can you suggest anything else? I am using Windows XP Home SP3..

I'd reinstall the BlueSoleil software you uninstalled. I suspect that it added a toolbar to Outlook. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
