Several times a day, I don't get my emails, I have to ctrl, alt delete, click task manager & find Microsoft Office & right click & end task. Then I can open office & get my emails. I have disabled add ins & still the same problem.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem.

Buy a Mac :-).

What version are you using?
Is it single license or are you on 365?

You guys to clear your memory and update your software. Your comp is overloaded yo.

I have the same problem with Audials software.
It is a real pain in the arse!!!
How long has it been doing it?
Maybe could try going back to a previous restore point.

Multiple computers doing the same thing with different versions, the in common thing is the account / mail server. Check those settings or if theres a service problem there.

You mean an application specific password?
They are easy enough to set-up but to me it sounds like your mail configuration in Outlook is wrong.
Just to be clear, you are doing this, right:

1) Login to Yahoo with your U/N, P/W.
2) Generate an app specific password in Yahoo - call it 'Outlook' - you'll get given a specific password to use.
3) Go to Outlook and when adding your Yahoo account you are using your Yahoo email as your U/N and then the app specific password, NOT your Yahoo password in Outlook.
4) The rest should auto-configure, but if any errors pop up, post them here, including screenshots if you can that don't show PII.
