New Installation: Cant find Outlook 2016

Post by jmangels »

I try to install the connector 8.8.8.1.x on a brand new dell Notebook with Windows10.

When I wanted to install the the conector I got a Outlook not found on System error.
When I open Outlook I will hang in the first access process where I can't choose an other access type for select zimbra...
By the way when I try to install the zimbra connector when Outlook is open i got a please close Outlook before Installation error.

I found in this Forum:
https://bugzilla.zimbra.com/show_bug.cgi?id=108476
But the Workaround didn't work:
REG ADD HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Setup /v DisableOffice365SimplifiedAccountCreation /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

In the registry there is no: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office
I seems to me that mircosoft has shifted the office installation to the new app store and outlook is not part of a office pakage anymore and therefore a standalone app.

Any suggestion how to install the zimbra connector are welcome ...

As far as I know this is fixed in latest version of the ZCO connector:

It seems to be a difference between office that is preinstalled on new pc's and the outlook the you get from installing from Microsoft.

Ty installing outlook from an installation file from Microsoft.
