The Inbox repair tool can resolve problems by scanning your Outlook data files, and repairing errors. To use the Inbox repair tool, exit Outlook, and then follow the steps in Repair Outlook Data Files (.pst and .ost). In the first place, check whether your antivirus is up-to-date. Reliable and trusted antivirus software vendors do care about compatibility with Microsoft Office applications, so there is a good chance that the issue is fixed in their latest update. If the above does not help, turn off the antivirus and see if it brings Outlook back to life.

Nevertheless, you cannot save the recovered data when using the demo tool. For that, purchase the premium version of the software. After your account has been repaired, restart Outlook. Check if the problems causing ‘my Outlook keeps shutting down’ persist. After the restart, try opening Outlook again to see if the Outlook keeps shutting down issue is resolved.

We also released a new rule that corrected the wrong campaign verdict for all impacted customers during the incident. Customers with only a 3rd party email address set up as the username of their Microsoft Account will be asked to add a 1st party Microsoft alias to their account before accessing Outlook.com. You might need to set Windows Update to automatically download and install recommended updates. Installing any important, recommended, and optional updates can often correct problems by replacing out-of-date files and fixing vulnerabilities.

The built-in https://office365emailfix.blogspot.com/2025/10/fix-outlook-not-sending-or-receiving.html back-off mechanisms in the indexing component of Windows Search or WDS pauses the indexing of Outlook data when the system is under heavy use. The easiest way to let the indexing finish is to leave Outlook running overnight.Additionally, you can reduce performance issues by running Outlook in Cached Exchange Mode. In this mode, Windows Search or WDS searches the local copy of the mailbox instead of the mailbox content on the server. I even reduced mailboxes sizes and that didn't help, I setup a new user (albeit existing PC but new windows profile), and he is having the same issues. If the mailboxes open automatically after removing them and restarting Outlook, they may be auto mapped. This setting can be changed by an Exchange admin by submitting a request via Jira and including the usernames of the client and the usernames of the mailboxes that need to be removed.

After finishing one step, if it does not resolve the issue move on to the next. This option could be useful if you constantly have to wait for Outlook to rebuild its data file when you restart. Microsoft Outlook is one of the most widely used email clients globally, especially in professional and business environments. Outlook also comes with strong built-in security features, making it a reliable choice for managing communication and workflow.

This happens to accounts that are configured in the iOS Mail app. The loading of unregistered MAPI services has been disabled by default to make Outlook more secure. To access the calendar shared with your Microsoft 365 for business account, you'll need to accept the invitation from Outlook on the web, iOS, or Android. If you've already clicked the Accept button in Outlook 2016, you won't be able to re-accept the invitation from another Outlook application. The person who sent you the invitation will need to remove your permissions and then send a new invitation. If you typically use an Outlook.com account for email, this issue can occur if there are multiple aliases on the account and the 3rd party email address is the primary alias.
