What are the causes that MS Outlook 2007 freezes? It's OK a few seconds after launching the application but when I want to do some action (e.g. write new e-mail) it suddenly freezes. Is there some troubleshooting?

thank you

I have experienced similar issues.

This was mostly related to either Xobni running or anti-virus. Try disabling anything similar you might have installed and see if the problem re-occurs.

Aside from that, you could always upgrade to 2010, but that might be cost-prohibited.

Recreating your .OST file should fix this issue.

Open Outlook>File>Data File Management>Data Files

Remove file name outlook.ost

Restart Outlook.

  • I must agree. I this is my first step when coming across a similar issue. It doesn't always fix the issue. However, it's solves majority of cases. It's quick and easy.

After over 12 hrs of reading and following all the advise on forums all over the place, I finally ran across a post that mentioned I cloud control panel. Well yes I had it on my computer and yes I deleted it and ....All better.

I can't believe that I found a fix and it was that simple but for me ..It was. I had done the repair, I had run defrag, I had done everything I could and was just about to uninstall Outlook 2007 and re-install when , something told me to keep looking and when someone mentioned problems with I could and what it did to outlook..I took it off and somehow..everything started working properly
