This issue occurs when the following conditions are true: - The 32-bit version of Office is installed on a 64-bit version of the operating system. "Please wait while Windows Configures Microsoft Office 64-bit Components 2013" message when you start Outook 2013 | Office 2013 32 bit on a 64 bit OS need the Windows Search service. I even tested with full rights for everyone on this folder and its content. The error is the same with or without this folder. It is recreated if we run Outlook with administrator privileges. I deleted a vestigal C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\. I uninstalled/reinstalled the 32-bit version. Steps 1 and 2 occur even when ran with administrator privileges. Outlook now run correctly, until the next time we run itĮach time someone run Outlook we have this exact same scenario.we immediatly have the same pop-up but with error 2502.1 or 2 second later an error pop-up appear indicating "Error 2503: an internal error occured.then we immediatly have a small window titled "Microsoft Office 64-bit Components 2013" with a progress bar stating "Please wait while Windows configure Microsoft Office 64-bit Components 2013".when someone run Outlook, we first have the usual blue rectangle with "Outlook" written in the middle.The message is not displayed when Outlook is ran as an administrator (being admin is not sufficient, we have to right-click and ask to run as administrator). So I uninstalled the 64-bit version, and installed the 32-bit version.īut Outlook display an annoying error message when launched (but works flawlessly). This required Microsoft Office 32-bit (we tested with 64-bit: failed). Several weeks later, an accounting software was installed. On a Windows 2012 R2 server used as remote desktop, we installed Microsoft Office 2013 64-bit.
