I’ve had some strange problems with Outlook for the past couple of weeks
- complains about things not being closed properly
- usually crashes the first time I try to print a message
- crashed when I tried to select a couple of messages (it’s challenging to delete a message when you can’t click on it!)
- very slow opening and closing
Probably the Outlook file was getting pretty big, so I deleted a bunch of messages, and compacted the Personal Folder. The Outlook.pst file was reduced to about half its previous size, but some of the problems persist.
How To Delete an Outlook Subfolder
Today I wanted to delete a subfolder that I don’t need, and even though the folder is empty, an Outlook showed a message said the folder was full, and couldn’t be deleted. Or maybe I didn’t have the correct permissions, and should check with the Administrator. Well, I’m the Administrator, and have permission to do whatever I want!
Google showed me how to get rid of that folder though.
- Press the Ctrl key while opening Outlook, and confirm that you want to open in Safe mode.
- Then, while you’re in Safe mode, select the folder and delete it.
If you’ve run into a similar problem, I hope this works for you too.
