Outlook error - You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation.

If you upgraded outlook to a newer version, maybe you are going to get a problem that you cannot move any mails to personal folder with the error:
"Cannot move the items. You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation."


The error is because most likely the value of the key pstdisablegrow needs to be changed to allow the pst file to be changed.

To solve the problem:

  • Open the regedit to modify the outlook registry.
  • Locate the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\pst



  • Double click on the Dword pstdisablegrow and change the value from 1 to 0


That should fix the problem.

If you get the next error when when clicking "Block Sender" on an email:

The Junk E-mail Filter is not available for your Microsoft Exchange Server e-mail account because you are working online. To enable the Junk E-mail Filter for this account, switch to Cached Exchange Mode.



What you need to do is recreate the outlook profile:

  • Go to control panel and open the Mail


  • Click on show profiles
  • Click on Add
  • Type a name from the new profile then click the OK button

  • Open Outlook using your new profile, now you should be able to send senders to the blocked list

Unable to open outlook archive PST file


If you are unable to open your archive file from outlook, looks like it got corrupted; there is a tool that might help you fix the file.

Open up explorer and then browse down to the following folder for Outlook 2007, and run the file SCANPST.EXE:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\

Once you open up the utility, you’ll have to find the location of your PST file by clicking the Browse button.

Click on the Start button to start the scan…



It will take a while to scan the file, and you’ll get a report at the end telling you whether you have errors in the file. See the image below:



Click on the Repair button, and after a while you’ll finally get the “Repair complete” message.

A log file was created, open it in order to know what was fixed on the file.

At this moment you can try to remap the file in outlook.
