Outlook 2016 Programs Start

It sounds like the program is updating....just leave it for a while....

Try this:

While the program is stalled:

Hold down the Control,Alt and Delete keys simultaneously.

A screen will appear with several options.

Select Task Manager

Look in the far left column and find the program of interest.

Right Click on the program.

Select End Task (it may ask you to verify)

Close the window.

Try the program.

This may solve your problem.

Feedback is requested.

I've had some issues like this on occasion.

Try starting Outlook in "safe mode", per the Microsoft website:

If Outlook won't open, try opening it in safe mode, which disables add-ins.

• 1. Right-click the Start button, and click Run.
• 2. Type Outlook.exe /safe, and click OK.
• Tip: If Windows can't find Outlook.exe /safe, try using the full path to Outlook (for example C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeXX, where XX is your version number).

Thanks for comments, I will keep them - just in case.....
