Office Beta Channel Version 2502 Build 18516.20000
My beta channel Office suite updated to Version 2502 Build 18516.20000 this morning, and now Outlook crashes any time I select an email or open a calendar object. Not even opening the email, just se...
Did you manage to sort this? Roll back office version?
After doing a bit of googling as I'm still using Outlook in office 2016, I was able to revert back to the January 7th 2025 beta build by doing the following at an elevated command prompt,( press enter after each line).
cd %programfiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\ClickToRun
officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.18502.20000
I also tried using my Office 365 outlook which would still at least read emails, only to find out that data files are not supported. Hopefully this is something that will change as I use a lot of data files. Also, turn automatic updates off until the next beta update coming up sometime in February, (that's what I've read).
I just updated to the beta (Version 2502 Build 16.0.18526.20024), released on February 3rd. I've only checked my Outlook 2016 C2R at this point, but so far no crashing when opening emails including those in data files.
