The operation failed..." when selecting Manage Rules & Alerts

Copper Contributor

I know that Microsoft says this problem has been fixed but I have a client who continues to have this error in Outlook 2013 on one computer and Outlook 2016 on a second computer.  

 

Both machines have been updated to the latest version of their respective programs.  

 

Any other thoughts?

 

Thanks in advance

Is your one an MSI (product key activated) or Click2Run?

 

If MSI:

  • make sure updated security patch is installed.
  • If you can uninstall and reinstall, check that.

 

If o365/C2R:

  • Update Office through MS Word.
  • Run Online Repair.
  • Uninstall and reinstall from portal.

 

Refer official MS page for this:
