I am a PC Technician and have multiple computers have this issue. Our shop upgraded from Office XP to Office 2007... and we left Frontpage XP installed. The issue is that Outlook 2007 "blinks" as if it was trying to create a new personal folders file and can't. If you let it do it it will continue for days then create multiple "personal folders" items that Outlook can't open because they don't exist. I've rebuilt the windows profile only copying over documents/favorites/desktop folders, created a new PST file and then removed it after it prompted me to find the personal folder it was looking for but the issue will still remain and both don't resolve the issue. I have also used Scanpst to scan the PST files and it finds and fixes errors in them. My only conclusion is that there is a PST folder that is getting too large and being corrupted and Outlook it trying to auto-create a new non-corrupted PST file. My question is what would cause this action by Outlook 2007 and is there one setting or solution that I deploy that would prevent Outlook to stop "blinking" or auto-creating new personal folders?

Try creating a new one and see if the problem persists. In general, you should uninstall old versions of Outlook rather than overwrite them with a newer version. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918/en-us How to create a new e-mail profile in Outlook 2007 and in Outlook 2003 Hal -- Hal Hostetler, CPBE -- hhh(a)kvoa.com Senior Engineer/MIS -- MS MVP-Print/Imaging -- WA7BGX http://www.kvoa.com -- "When News breaks, we fix it!"

I agree that our shop should have uninstalled Office XP completely then installed Office 2007. The top-down decision was to leave Frontpage for whatever reason and we have hundreds of computers. So essentially it becomes a big enough of an issue to redo the install to see if that is the cause however we're unable to pinpoint the cause. That makes it hard to fix for good as it happens so randomly with different computers. The next step possibly if there are no other solutions/settings I'm overlooking is to try uninstall office xp, reinstall office 2007 and check back in with the users. In my mind it seems like a personal folder that is becoming corrupted and needs repaired however that still leaves me wondering why Outlook 2007 automatically tries to create a new personal folder, gets stuck, causing the "blinking". Thanks for your quick response & hope to hear more from you, Joe "Hal Hostetler [MVP P/I]" wrote: On Thursday, July 24, 2008 11:16 AM Le wrote: I'm having the exact same problem. Any update on this?
