Problem : “The profile name is not valid. Enter a valid profile name.”

Hello All,

I keep getting this message when Outlook 2003 is not running, Im running XP with all the lastest update including office. I had active sync 4.5 installed then removed it and still had the issue. Recreated several profiles and repaired Outlook. Still pops up just when outlook is not running. I also turned off all AV programs Kaspersky. Still no go. Any Ideas folks, it just seems this Active sync is such a pain. I am running XP tablet edition, its a Fujitsu tablet, I’m syncing with a Palm Trea Phone.
Any help will be great!!!

Regards in Advance, NC

The message indicates that some program/process/service is trying to launch Outlook.  I can’t advise on what program is making the attempt, but it would be something that interfaces with Outlook.
