I sat with a client last Tuesday whose Outlook had been throwing 0x800CCC97 for three days straight. She’d already reinstalled Office twice, run every Windows troubleshooter she could find, and was seriously considering wiping her machine. Twenty minutes later, we had her mail flowing again. The fix had nothing to do with reinstalling anything.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re seeing the same error on your screen right now, here\u2019s what you should check first.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
