Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook

[Travis]

Yesterday all was working just fine; last night I recieved this message when
I tried to open Outlook:

Canot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window. The
set of folders cannot be opened. File access is denied. You do not have the
permission required to access the file
C:\Users\Travis\AppDate\Local\Outlook\Outlook.pst

I am the only user on this machine; anyone have a suggestion to help me
regain access? I tried a system restore but that didn't help. Thanks-

Is that a typo or not? The path should be:
C:\Users\Travis\Appdata\Local\MICROSOFT\Outlook\Outlook.pst?

You are correct Gordon, my mistake as I was typing it in. Here is the
message I keep getting:

set of folders cannot be opened. File access is denied. You do not have the
permission required to access the file

Have you checked whether the pst file in that location is Read-Only? (File
attributes can sometimes get changed...)

Try opening Outlook with the /resetnavpane switch as the first step in
troubleshooting:

Start > Run > outlook.exe /resetnavpane
(note the space between outlook.exe and /resetnavpane)

Vista/Windows 7

Start > Start Search > outlook.exe /resetnavpane
(same space)

Thanks JB, I did try that earlier at the suggestion of a buddy. But nothing
changed, the same message came up. I'm really in a bind here....

JB, Thank you Thank You!! I did what you said - Start > Start Search > outlook.exe /resetnavpane - and it worked perfectly after having the same problem for the past two days!!

I did try to run the program by searching outlook.exe /resetnavpane but
the same thing happened again. Please anyone if there's another way of
fixing it. Is reformatting the window could solve the prolem?

Thank you.

JB, Thank you Thank You!! I did what you said - Start > Start Search >
