      0x8004010F 'Outlook data file cannot be accessed'

      Applies To: Office | Office 2010 | Microsoft Office Outlook | Windows 7

      Can anyone help ?. I get this message when I try and send mail from Outlook included in Office 2010. I am using Windows 7 on the new laptop  and transferred my files using windows 'easy transfer'.

      Nothing sends or receives, yet the system on Vista works perfectly (even though I never liked Vista much) . I have looked for two days at various 'fixes' but they all seem to apply to Outlook 2007. I am def not a computer whizz as some of u are , but would appreciate assistance (if anyone can) to make an old guy happy. Windows 7 seemed superb, until I hit this error code......

      You cannot use Windows Easy Transfer with Outlook. The profile it creates is corrupt. So while you should repaire your PST file, you should also create a new Outlook profile and use a supported method to connect it to your PST file: Open the PST file in the news profile and then set it as your default.
