Outlook 2013 Script Error

The problem usually occurs after you have upgraded to Outlook 2013 from a previous version.

To fix this problem, we will have to make changes in the registry. You can attack this one of two ways. Using the registry import file, or making the change yourself manually.

Method 1: Import File

Use these steps if you’re a novice and not too familiar with working in the Registry Editor.

  1. Close Microsoft Outlook.
  2. Download the OutlookFix file.
  3. Open the OutlookFix.zip file by double-clicking on it.
  4. Open the OutlookFix.reg file by double-clicking on it.
  5. If prompted by UAC for permission to make changes to the computer, select “Yes“.
  6. A Registry Editor dialog box will appear asking “Are you sure you want to continue?”. Select “Yes“.
  7. A message should appear telling you that the Registry was modified successfully.
  8. Open Microsoft Outlook and select “Personal Folders” or use any other method to access the “Outlook Today” screen. The error message should no longer appear.

Method 2: Manually Editing the Registry

If you know what you’re doing when it comes to the Windows Registry, use the following method.

  1. Close Microsoft Outlook.
  2. Hold the Windows Key then press “R“.
  3. Type “regedit” then select “OK“.
  4. Navigate to the following location:
    • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
    • Typelib
    • {0006F062-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
  5. Expand {0006F062-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} via the plus sign, then right-click the “1.0” folder, then select “Delete”
    OutlookFix 1dot0 Delete
  6. Select “Yes” since you do want to permanently delete the value.
  7. Close the Reigstry Editor.
  8. Open Microsoft Outlook and select “Personal Folders” or use any other method to access the “Outlook Today” screen. The error message should no longer appear.

  1. I followed these steps but when I expand 006FO62-0000-0000-C00-000000000046
    There is no folder 1.0. I have folders 1.1 and 1.2.
    So following other suggestions here I deleted 1.2 and the problem was fixed. Thank you!

  3. Hi Christi !
    If you have 1.1 and 1.2 folders than delete 1.2.
    Works fine for me

  11. Had the same issue as Christi.
    I just had to delete the 1.2 folder, and that cleared it for me.

  14. Had an error when Windows Update did a recent update of Office Pro 2013 and started displaying ‘library not registered’ error on Outlook startup.. Followed the instructions here (using manual registry edit method) and it all worked and the error is no longer displayed.

    Thanks for a complete and well described fix!

  17. Amazing! I’ve been hunting this issue down for a while and your solution worked so well and so quickly. Thanks a ton!

  20. I followed these steps but when I expand 006FO62-0000-0000-C00-000000000046
    There is no folder 1.0. I have folders 1.1 and 1.2. Folder 1.1 expands to 0 (which expands to win32), FLAGS, and HELPDIR. Any idea what I should do?

Did this help? Let us know!
