Outlook fails to shut down
I'm running Office 2000 Pro SP3 with XP SP1a. When I try to end Outlook a
message 'Please wait while Microsoft Outlook exits' remains on the screen and doesn't go. When I look at Tasks, Outlook is still running and it is still in processes.I can start another instance of Outlook but like the first instance it will not shut down. |

Outlook fails to shut down
Some common reasons why Outlook will not shut down completely when you click
either the X or Exit: 1. PDA synchronization software with your PDA in the cradle. 2. WinFax Pro (especially 10.02 in Outlook 2003) - contact their support for an alleged fix. 3. Franklin-Cover Plan Plus! 4. COM Add-ins. 5. Mail reminder add-ins that keep a stub of Outlook open in the background to check for new mail and fire reminders. 6. Anti-virus/firewall programs that are set to scan incoming and outgoing mail. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. Due to the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without reading.
