Title: Issue affecting viewing email content
User Impact: Users may have been unable to view email message content.
Final status: We’ve confirmed that the fix successfully resolved the issue, though some users will be required to restart their email client for the change to take effect. In some circumstances, a second restart may be also be necessary.
Please check in with your colleagues to see if they are experiencing this bug and if so – please advise of the following two options for a work around.
Option1:
– Hold ‘Ctrl’ key and click on the Outlook Application to open Outlook.
– A pop-up will appear asking to open Outlook in safe mode.
– Click ‘Yes’.
– Another pop-up will appear asking to choose a profile name.
– Click ‘Ok’.
Option2:
– Close any sessions of outlook and proceed with the following
– Push Windows key + R (this will open the Run window)
– In the run field enter outlook /safe and press the OK button.
– When prompted, press ok to choose your profile and see if its fixed.
This will get Outlook functional for more users experiencing this issue, however it is a workaround.
If these two options do not resolve your issue please contact Chill IT on 1300 726 679.
We appreciate your patience and understanding and apologise for any inconvenience.
