Hi, I was in my (massive) deleted items folder, searching for a message I'd deleted... When, after sorting the messages by "from" to more easily facilitate my search, Outlook "hiccupped", crashed and I had to close. On opening Outlook, I can't do the little insert-right-arrow thing to get the number of messages in each folder. Where would you look to fix that?
