SLOW START-UP OUTLOOK

Thu Feb 15, 2024 1:00 am

When I start Outlook in command line Outlook starts immediately.
Starting Outlook from mailwasher pro will take a long time.
I'm using Outlook 2019.

Does starting Outlook from its desktop or start menu shortcut start Outlook correctly? if so, another option is to use the target of a desktop shortcut and paste that into MWpro....

To do this, first create a shortcut to Outlook on your desktop (if not already there), as below:

Right click on the Outlook.exe file, and click More Options >> Send to >> Desktop (create shortcut).

Then right click on that shortcut, click Properties>>Shortcut tab, and copy the Target field into MWPro under Mailwasher Pro>>Settings>>General>>Washing Mail click the email program button and select,

"Use other application"

And paste in the target text you copied earlier.

Click Save to save changes.

How'd that go?

I created a shortcut from Outlook.exe to the desktop.
When I click on this shortcut, Outlook opens immediately.
I then pasted this shortcut into MW and saved it.
Opening Outlook from MW again takes a long time, especially loading the profile.

I have Outlook 2019 changed to Outlook new. This mail program will then be started immediately.
