This particularly happens when the try to remove a personal folder from your folder list. The same error message can be seen while working in the Corporate or Workgroup mode in the attempt of removing the personal folders from the profile.

Cause
The reason for the same can be like if the valid PST file has not been pointed to by the Personal Folders service.

At this point of time, I was feeling very restless and wanted the reason for the same. After searching on the internet, the cause stroked was of some format related problems. Actually in earlier versions of Microsoft Outlook, format called Unicode was supported to the contacts list and body of the PST files. But the newer file versions support Unicode storage for whole of the PST files. In terms of computing, Unicode is an industry standard which allows the systems to consistently represent and manipulate text expressed in most of the world’s writing systems.

If the preview pane is enabled then whatever nasty scripts are written in the e-mail message also gets opened. This is very dangerous as many of the e-mail viruses’ writers design them in such a way that the nasty script runs without actually double clicking the attachment or anything. This can be a big cause of PST file corruption and rest other files on the system.

If the virus infects your system then it will be automatically sent to the other people who are there in your address book without letting you know that e-mails have been sent on your behalf. So it is recommended that you should turn off the preview pane so as to minimize the chances of PST corruption and also the need of PST repair.

Not contrary from the other applications, MS outlook also gives you the help files through which you can better understand the information about the tools which you can use and the objects of the Outlook.

The help files can be accesses from the help option of the toolbar in Outlook.

Now for the new user and even for the experienced ones, these help files provide a better option to work and know the things better. So at this stage if these files get corrupted then you certainly need to fix them.

When the help files get corrupted or damaged then those may get open but will not display any of the topics or the text within the help window may be unreadable. So to come with the situation you need to do these two steps:
•    Rename the Help files to .old
•    Reinstall MS Outlook

You can rename the help files by looking for the *.chm files. For this, you need to type this file name in the Files and Folders option of the Search option. After this, MS Outlook is reinstalled for getting the new copy of the help files.

After installing this service pack on the system which is running MS Outlook, you may feel this service pack as a sheer wastage when you encounter some of the error messages related to .msg files. MSG files in Outlook refer to the e-mail messages which have been saved as files. This error message is mentioned below:

“The operation failed due to a registry or installation problem. Restart Outlook and try again. If the problem persists, please reinstall.”

This particularly happens when you try to open the message by double clicking it. However when you use the MAPI (Messaging Application Programming Interface) editor to know the properties of the affected .msg file, the message does not open with the following error message:

“MAPI_E_CORRUPT_DATA”

“This form requires Word as your e-mail editor but Word is either busy or cannot be found. The form will be opened in the Outlook Editor instead.”

Or

“WordMail is busy or unavailable”

After this Outlook stops responding. Well, the root of the problem lies in the fact if you have upgraded Microsoft Office to Office XP. In the mean course, if few registry of the earlier version has not been removed during the upgrade then this might be causing the problem. So this is due to the misbehavior of those registries.
