Free Support Utility for Microsoft Outlook

Often, Outlook options are hidden beneath many levels of menus. Worse still, there are some features of Outlook you may simply never find. OutlookTools aims to make configuring Outlook far simpler, and it does an excellent job of it. You’ll be able to quickly get access to all of your Outlook settings and file folders, as well as run troubleshooting tools, such as one to fix corrupt .pst files. You can also solve one of the more annoying problems with Outlook-the way the program blocks many file types, because it considers them insecure. OutlookTools will unblock any file type you want. In addition, it will let you start Outlook with any one of numerous switches, and let you customize when and how Desktop Alerts appear telling you that you have new mail. You can change the transparency of alerts, as well as determine how long they should stay visible.

Main Program Features

  • Easy access to Outlook settings and data folders
  • Easy access to troubleshooting tools
  • Start Outlook with a startup switch
  • Clear the Most Recently Used lists
  • Make the New Mail Alert stay up for longer than 30 seconds
  • Unblock attachments
  • Hides options not available for your Outlook version
The utility is absolutely free for both personal and commercial use.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for tip. I checked the page and it shows that the utility is not free. It is Try-before-Buy, but still you will have to pay for it eventually.

Hi Alexis,
Thanks you for comment. The utility is fine, but it is NOT FREE.

I know that many tool for recover information aren't good,and therefore in my view the best choice will be-convert from ost to pst software,because it helped me many times and also application is free as how as I remember,software convert from ost to pst software will convert *.ost to *.pst extension, that can be easily opened by any email client, compatible with Microsoft Outlook,can see a preview window of ost pst conversion 2003, that shows emails, which were recovered successfully by ost to pst tools,convert to pst can process damaged *.ost files, but, when it is heavily damaged, you can see some minor blind spots in a preview window,export your mailbox to a file with *.pst extension.

Hi Mike,

Hi, Mike

during my surfing i found an ost to pst converter utility. It seems very efficient and easy to use, evaluation version of the tool is available. It can convert the ost file data and mails to pst format that finally can be accessed with the Outlook client and will work on various latest and old versions of windows and outlook.
