Microsoft Outlook will not open

I recently purchased a new computer that came with Vista. When I click on
e-mail links or click on the Microsoft Outlook icon on the menu bar I get a
pop-up that says Microsoft Outlook cannot be opened. Any help or suggestions
would be appreciated.

Have you tried repairing the installation by re-running setup from under
Programs and Features? For issues with Microsoft Outlook check the following

MS Outlook does not come with Vista. Did you purchase Office 2007 with the
computer? You might have a trial version of Office & Outlook. That's why it
appears on the menu. Open Windows Mail and set up your email accts there so
you can retrieve your mail.
