Has anyone had jot in making this product work with outlook 2010? I get the ODIR menu option but it gives an error reding the folder sructure. “ODIR was unable to read your PST file or OST file. Removing duplicates are not possible”

@Andrew: Thank you! It worked like a charm! I think the creators of ODIR should also include this in the instructions on their website.

just realized that someone already recommended DoubleKiller. Well, I second the rec. It’s one of my two favorite tiny utilities (the other is Cathy by R. Vasicek).
thanks

@Pat: I know this comment is a little late to the game but I had the same problem that Pat was having and fixed the issue by first ensuring that UAC (User Account Control) was turned off and also make the user a local admin on the computer. Once I did that I installed again and it worked!

@ Pat: I’m afraid I cannot think of another Outlook deduper at the moment. ODIR worked fine under Outlook 2003 but apparently not so under 2007+. Sorry!

I have to keep installing ODIR to use a 2nd or 3rd time. the icon disappears in my outlook 2007. Also when I have removed the program I get a ‘code 5′ when I try to reload the program again.

Please help before I go and purchase another program that doesn’t create this kind of grief for me.

I can’t get ODIR to work on Outlook 2007. I have installed it (and uninstalled) TWICE. The ODIR option does not appear on the File menu.

Dear enter8!

“object variable or with block variable not set

Did you manage to solve the problem? What is the solution? Please help me!

Thanks in advance, Attila

I installed ODIR on two rigs:

1. XP SP2 Outlook 2003
2. XP SP2 Outlook 2000

On the 2003 machine I get an error when Outlook loads at startup:

“object variable or with block variable not set

91
errorin clsContactInsp.CreateSharingMenu”

Which results in no ODIR on the menu. If I restart Outlook, ODIR appears.

On the 2000 rig, I installed ODIR, used it once to delete about 50 dupes, went back the next day and it’s gone from the menu completely- even with a re-start.

This is incredibly frustrating. It worked well once and I desperately need the functionality, but I can’t get the menu item back.

If anyone can offer any ideas, I’d appreciate it.

Doublekiller is a file dup, not an mail dup so cannot compare with ODIR.

Outlook Duplicate Remover at http://objs.net/ODRsetup.exe is a hidious thing. It doesn’t use indexing and compares each file with each other one. Fine if you only have a few to check but if you have 10,000, you’re looking at 100,000,000 file compares and weeks of processing.

Alright, the app Cristos posted the link to wasn’t the one I was looking for. The one I like is Anti-Dupe for Outlook. Unfortunately, it’s no longer freeware, but I found an old copy. Worth looking around for it.

Oops, just realized that someone already recommended DoubleKiller. Well, I second the rec. It’s one of my two favorite tiny utilities (the other is Cathy by R. Vasicek).

Also thanks to Cristos for posting the link. I’ve been looking for that app. I like it better than ODIR.

Brian: Look for DoubleKiller by Big Bang. It’s a tiny program, it works incredibly well (I’ve used it to delete tens of thousands of duplicates and I’ve never seen it make a mistake), it sorts really fast, and it’s free. Just be aware that the free version does NOT delete to the Recycle Bin, so if you’re not sure about a file, you should use the program’s Move option instead of deleting.

I’ve been using Outlook Duplicates Remover (written by an ex-programmer / priest) for a couple years. It still works perfectly well with Outlook 2007, and it’s been quite stable.

It’s hard to find, but you can download it from a French site at http://objs.net/ODRsetup.exe
