Constant Error Message when Outlook is opened
I have a recurring problem when opening Outlook. I am running Windows XP
Home Edition. Every time I open Outlook, 4 reminders pop up. When I try to dismiss them, I get the window ‘Cannot turn off the reminder. You may be reminded again. Cannot locate recurrence information for reminder’. I have read earlier posts, and have tried to find the .pst files to fix them. I was unable to run outlook.exe/cleaneminders, getting the error message "Windows cannot find 'outlook.exe/cleanreminders'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I also just tried to search for .pst files on the computer, but it couldn't find any. Can anyone help me?

Put a space between Outlook.EXE and /cleanreminders. See if that works
better. "Mary Beth" wrote in message ... I have a recurring problem when opening Outlook. I am running Windows XP Home Edition. Every time I open Outlook, 4 reminders pop up.

Constant Error Message when Outlook is opened
Is Outlook (and Office) installed in the default location? For Office 2007
that would be C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12 "Mary Beth" wrote in message ... Yes, Outlook is closed.

being found? "Mary Beth" wrote in message ... Tried this - did not solve the problem.
