This behavior can occur if the default profile is either corrupt or missing.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, create a new profile. To do so, follow these steps: NOTE: Because there are several versions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your computer. If they are, see your product documentation to complete these steps. - Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
- Click Switch to Classic View, double-click Mail, and then click Show Profiles to open the Mail dialog box.
- Click Add, type your profile name (for example, type MyOutlookProfile), and then click OK.
- Click Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next.
- Create a new account.
Microsoft Exchange Server account- Click Microsoft Exchange Server, and then click Next.
- Type your Exchange server name (for example, type exchange.example.com) in the Microsoft Exchange Server box, and type your alias in the User Name box.
- Click Check Name. If the data you entered is correct, your alias resolves to your underlined full name.
- Click Next, and then click Finish.
Non Microsoft Exchange Server accounts- Select the e-mail server that you use for your account, and then click Next.NOTE: If you are setting up an MSN e-mail account, click POP3 for MSN Internet Access version 5.3 or earlier, for MSN Explorer, click HTTP.
- In the appropriate boxes, type the information that is given to you by your Internet service provider (ISP) or administrator. If you want to use Microsoft Outlook to connect to a Hotmail server, you need to know your Hotmail e-mail address and password.NOTE: Unless your ISP has indicated that your service uses Secure Password Authentication (SPA), do not select the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) check box.
If you are adding a Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) server account, click Test Account Settings to verify that your account is working. If there is missing or incorrect information, such as your password, you will receive a prompt to supply or correct it. Be sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
- In the Mail dialog box, click Always use this profile, and then in the list of existing profiles, click the profile that you just created.
- Click OK to close the Mail dialog box, and then start Outlook.
