Outlook Email Recovery

Consider a situation when you try opening MS Outlook and suddenly you receive an error message saying-

“Cannot start the reminder service. Unable to show reminders”

The error displayed above is related to MS Outlook reminders. When this error appears alone, then the issue can be resolved easily. However, if this error occurs along with another error-

“An unknown error has occurred. 0X80040600”

then the time required for resolving these issues might be more. Basically, with the occurrence of these two errors, MS Outlook loses the ability to send and receive email messages. The errors occur, when Outlook folders are damaged with some kind of corruption issues, and Outlook fails to show the reminders. However, if you delete the reminders, you might be able to resolve this issue. But if MS Outlook fails to perform email operations due to second error, its quite possible that your PST file is damaged.

In order to clean the reminders items to get rid of this issue, follow the steps given below:

• Click Start and click the Search or Find option
• Click ‘Files and Folders’, type ‘Outlook.exe’ in the named box and press ENTER
• Note the full path of ‘Outlook.exe’ and close the box
• Click ‘Start’ and then ‘Run’
• Type the full path of ‘Outlook.exe’, press SPACEBAR, type ‘/’ (the forward slash) and then command-line switch ‘Cleanreminders’ to delete the reminders

After this Outlook must start working normally, however, if it still doesn’t works for you, then we suggest you to use Repair PST software.
