I can not delete a duplicate personal folders list
Vall...
amazing that there isn't an easy fix for this. The instructions provided simply don't work ( tools-email accounts-view change email accounts-deliver to new account-finish-close outlook and reopen ), and none of the other offered explanations have worked either. As this is such a common problem; why hasn't microsoft provided a very EASY fix? I am more confused ( and frightened ) and don't want to make the problem worse! |

Your profile is corrupt, probably based on an incorrect migration of your
..pst file. Create a new mail profile and configure it to use your existing .pst file. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

I can not delete a duplicate personal folders list
Hello again Diane...
Well, I followed the instructions exactly, and it created a new profile, but when I went to my pst files ( as per instructions, it created a second set of files again. My new profile has no emails in it, and the second set has everything... Nuts!
