It has has nothing to do with Outlook.pst because I renamed it and the behaviour remained te same. Help!

Re: Also BCM error message "Luther" <enowning[ at ]gmail.com> 1/22/2007 7:07:40 PM If you don't want BCM in Outlook, you can remove it from your Mail profile. Go to Control Panel|Mail|Show Profiles (select your profile if there's more than one)|Properties|Data Files|select BCM data file|Remove.

Re: Also BCM error message Ronald 1/23/2007 7:09:04 PM Thank you Raul, it did do the trick. There were 2 .Net Frame Work 2.0 entries in the program list: ..Net Frame Work 2.0 and .Net Frame Work 2.0 Language Pack NL (= Dutch), both 97.12 MB. I uninstalled the .Net Frame Work 2.0 and then Outlook functioned normally again.

Re: Also BCM error message pt 2/1/2007 3:53:03 PM This information has been helpful, however I still have a problem! I had a technician work on my computer once my email "crashed" due to BCM. He installed MO 2007 and all of the personal files I had under the personal Folder are gone. According to the tech he says BCM corrupted the files?! Is this possible/plausible if not is there any way at all to retrieve those files of old email?

I've never run into a case where BCM modified a PST, let alone corrupted one. Although some people complain about BCM not "using" the Outlook Contacts, I think its a neat feature that you can install and uninstall BCM without affecting Outlook database.
