Fix Your Outlook Problems

MS Outlook is an incredible application as part of the MS Office suite. It functions as an excellent email client, and keeps you connected with friends, colleagues and family. But there is more; it also has calendars, appointment setting options, notes making and journals, as well as contact management services which make it a great personal manger tool. Though it is a program developed by Microsoft, it cannot be linked to Windows. Operations and techniques that repair Windows may not necessarily fix Outlook. A lot depends on what is the fundamental problem in Outlook, to see if Windows System Restore can fix your Outlook problems.
You should initially also check if a PST file corruption is the cause of your problems. Outlook PST files are more prone to corruption, so it should be a matter of concern. If you use older versions of Outlook that save in the ANSI format, then the issue could possibly be from your PST file exceeding the maximum file size limit of 2 GB. The newer versions use the UNICODE format, and have space for 20 GB information. Corrupt PST files can be checked using the scanpst.exe function. You can also choose to repair Outlook by using some tools like the Outlook Repair Tool, which will most likely help you reach a diagnosis.
Using Windows System Restore for your petty Outlook problems may be a drastic step. It is advisable to do some online research on the problem at hand, and look for solutions there. There are tons of forums, websites and pages which talk specifically about problems encountered in Outlook, and also have reliable and simple manual and software solutions.
It is also more advisable to reinstall the Outlook application than rely on a system restore. This should be done if you totally run out of all the solutions that you could get your hands on. Reinstall by getting your genuine Outlook or MS Office setup disc, then proceed to reinstall. You can bet that all your problems will be wiped clean when you finish reinstalling. But before you proceed to reinstall your system make sure you have a backup of your current .pst file. Then recreate your account and restore all your emails, addresses, and calendars from the archives.
Hopefully you will be able to treat your MS Outlook by yourself without having to restore; however, if problems persist feel free to contact Outlook helpdesk where you get reliable service for your Outlook troubles.
