    After installing the CRM 2011 for Outlook client, I am receiving the following error in the application event log:

    *********************************************************

    MSCRMAddin  EventID: 5903

    The Microsoft CRM Outlook add-in could not be initialized correctly. Restart Microsoft Outlook and try again. HR=0x80004005. Context=. Function=CAddin::OnConnectionInternal. Line=160

    *********************************************************

    The PC is based on Windows XP w/SP3 (x86) and has Office 2007 w/SP2 installed.  I have tried this with both the initial release of CRM 2011 (build 5.0.9688.583) and also after applying the recent rollup #2 (build 5.0.9688.1155).

    I able to successfully install the CRM for Outlook client, however I notice this behaviour after the end-user has run through the CRM configuration wizard.  I notice that this process adds a "2nd" Outlook addin, and upon restarting Outlook after this configuration process, both the MSCRM addin entries are shown as disabled and this seems to cause Outlook to crash accordingly.

    Hello Ian,

    Try uninstall completely the application and than install again:

    A. Uninstall "Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 for from ‘Add/Remove Programs’ in the 'Control Panel'

    B. Delete the following folders from the machine:
    "C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\MSCRM"

    And

    "C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\MSCRM"


    C. Delete the following registry keys:

    Click Start -> Run -> type 'RegEdit' -> Browse to the following locations:

    HKEY_Local_Machine/Software/Microsoft/MSCRM (Delete the 'MSCRM' folder)

    And

    HKEY_Current_User/Software/Microsoft/MSCRM (Delete the 'MSCRM' folder)

    D. Install again

    Hope this help.

    Unfortunately, neither of these suggested solutions seem to make any difference.  The CRM addin for Outlook still appears to be causing Outlook to crash and is causing on-going serious issues with our end-users.

    P.S.  We are now up to Rollup 6 (having stepped through all previous rollups) and have continued to witness these issues re-occur.
