Outlook 2007 Disconnected from SBS or Exchange
If you have Outlook 2007 connecting to Exchange 2007 or SBS 2008 and have been seeing the extremely persistent “Disconnected” button in the bottom right hand corner of your exchange, I think have the fix for you.
You can download the registry fix HERE or go to the PC that has the problem and edit the registry yourself.
** Warning: Editing the registry can be dangerous and Biden PC does not warrant any changes that you make.**
Navigate to “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\RPC” and if the “RPC” key doesn’t exist, create it.
Add or edit DWORD value: “DefConnectOpts” and make it “0″
Thanks lesgetdown! I appreciate the help!
