    I am working on Window 10 OS and using Microsoft Outlook 2010. The issue is that whenever I open Microsoft Outlook, it opens very slowly. So, what could be the reason behind this issue and solution to boost up Outlook Performance?

    Hi,

    If you are working on Microsoft Outlook from a long time, then might be your Outlook Data file is quite large that’s why Outlook taking time at startup. If you have huge PST File, then compress your Outlook Data File.

    To do so: Open ‘Outlook’ >> ‘File’ >> ‘Account Settings’ >> ‘Account Settings’ >> ‘Data File’ tab >> Click twice on Outlook account >> click on ‘Compact Now’.

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Michael, Thanks for the help.

    I had applied above solution as you discussed, but I did not reach to any conclusion. My Outlook PST file size is 1.75 GB. I think this size is not a big issue in Outlook 2010. So, is there any method by which I could resolve my issue instead of Compact Outlook Data File?

    Regards

    Hi Barry,

    You should try to repair you Outlook PST File once to resolve this issue by using Inbox Repair Tool (scanpst.exe) which is a free utility developed by Microsoft.

    Let me know, what impact occurs on Outlook performance.

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Barry,

    I agreed with Eddie’s solution, but you can also try other solutions to Boost up Outlook Performance. Few of them are listed here:

    1. Disable unwanted Add-Ins from Microsoft Outlook
    2. Turn Off Hardware Graphics Acceleration

    After searching over the web, I found an informative article on Improve Outlook Performance. So, you can take more help from this article and boost up Outlook speed.
