If you cannot configure the CRM 2011 outlook client after installing, and you receive a mapi error or .net 4 framework error…

 

First, Locate the MSMAPI32.dll and rename .OLD (using search)

the from the command prompt type:  fixmapi

 

Try the CRM 2011 Outlook Client Configuration again, if it still fails to configure:

 

From the control panel, add/remove programs,  Repair the Framework 4 which will requirs a reboot.

 

Also, make sure that all windows updates have been completed (might require several reboots!)
