outlook icon

[fogbax]

Why does the outlook icon remain on the taskbar after the program is shut
down and how can I fix it?
Thanks

It probably means Outlook is not fully exiting, look in Task Manager>Running
Processes Tab for Outlook.exe & end the process
Usually caused by a misbehaving add-in, or sync, fax, DTS software or
intergrated AV

I closed the outlook.exe in task manager, but it made no difference.

Don't multipost but simply go back to your original thread instead and
continue there.

All instances of outlook.exe?

Probably. After you kill a task which sits in the Notification Area, its
ghost will always remain until you hover over the icon with the mouse. Then
it vanishes.

In Task Manager, processes tab. if you click 'image name' title bar the
processes will be sorted alphabetically
If outlook.exe does not exist, then it would appear to be as Roady
suggested, a 'ghost'
