Hi, I am having a problem with Outlook 2007. Im trying to change to OUtlook 2007 from my current Outlook Express. When opening Outlook I recieve message:

This error can occur if you attempt to run Outlook from a Terminal Server session when the OST file is in use by the console session.
To access this instance of Outlook, exit the current Terminal Server session, and then start a new session by using the following Run command in Microsoft Windows:
mstsc.exe /CONSOLE
You must be an administrator on the computer that is accessing the console session. You cannot access a console session from a computer running Microsoft Windows XP Home edition. But you can do so from a computer running Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Windows XP Professional, or Microsoft Windows Vista.
For more information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 826488.

Outlook shuts down after this message.

I have Windows XP Professional.

Please help, I have no idea what to do :confused:

I don't have much idea but is Outlook Express closed when you try & run Outlook and get that error?

Should just leave OE closed and follow the likes of this

Haven't seen this error before but what I suggest you do is go to control panel and then mail. Create a new email profile.

Not sure what is happening but the OST file is only used in a exchange enviroment.
