Which program causes: "A program is trying to access e-mail address information stored in Outlook."?


Question

Since a couple of days I get the message when (re)booting my computer "A program is trying to access e-mail address information stored in Outlook. If this is unexpected, click Deny and verify your antivirus software is up-to-date."

It's not listed which program though. I have already uninstalled some "possible suspects" (like e.g. iCloud and so on) but this didn't help.

In the startup item was an entry called "Program", but disabling this still gives me this pop-up.

 

I ran a complete anti-virus scan and my computer is clean. Also Malwarebytes states my computer is okay.

 

How can I figure out - because the message isn't telling me - which program is trying to access my Outlook?

I have Office 365 installed on a Windows 10 machine.

Of course I can allow this "program", but which one? And what does it do?

I tried several things: uninstalling KIS2016 and all Outlook Com Add-ins.

After reboot the annoying messages still keeps on going strong.

 

Which program is causing this?

After closing Outlook this message appears...

Also the blue circle is running/spinning like crazy and Outlook is pretty much non-responsive...

Hello,

 

You mentioned KIS2016, so I'm guessing you are a Kaspersky customer?  I would suggest contacting their technical support at http://www.kaspersky.com/nl/support and asking them for assistance in checking the computer.  It could be some new piece of malware as-yet undetected by them.

 

Regards,

Now start installing your programs slowly just in case this happens again you can pin point the program causing it.

    • You invoke the game bar and then can pin it with transparent background.
    • 100% agree with this " As for real framerate vs framegen framerate, I don't think they exactly want you to know, given that their marketing has been strongly focused on hiding the real framerate and pretending the generated one is all that matters..."
    • I also use the classic Start menu in Open Shell in Windows 10/11
    • However, you would have to invoke it with the Windows key + G; in other words, it's useless. It is Microsoft's logic of placing things, and that is a company who have no idea how to design anything.
    • Samsung 2TB 9100 PRO, 990 PRO NVMe SSDs have never been cheaper by Sayan Sen It looks like the NVMe SSD market is once again coming to life if you are out there hunting for deals. Samsung, for example, is offering its 9100 PRO and 990 PRO drives at great prices that you should absolutely look at if you want to save some major bucks. The discounts apply on 2TB models (purchase links down below). First up, we have the 9100 PRO. It is based on PCIe Gen5 and thus promises double the speed of the 990 PRO. Samsung claims to deliver sequential read and write speeds of up to 14,700 MB/s and 13,400 MB/s, respectively, on the 2TB model. In terms of random throughput, the claimed numbers for the 2TB SKU is 1850K IOPS for the reads and 2600K IOPS for writes. The on-board DRAM cache helps in this regard with 2GB of LPDDR4X on the 2TB. The SSD is built on Samsung's in-house 8th Gen TLC V-NAND flash memory and has endurance ratings of 1200 TBW (terabytes written). Gen5 SSDs are known to run quite hot and thus the included SSDs are a must. You may even upgrade to something even better if you are having trouble managing the heat. Speaking of heat, Samsung says that the drives have an operating temperature of 0 to 70 Celsius, and upon exceeding this temperature, the drive's controller will begin throttling quite heavily. Get it at the link below: SAMSUNG SSD 9100 PRO without Heatsink 2TB, PCIe 5.0x4 M.2 2280 (MZ-VAP2T0CW): $239.99 (Amazon US) || $239.99 (Shipped and Sold by Newegg US) 990 PRO is, on the other hand, the fastest Gen4 drive from Samsung. There are some obvious differences like lower speeds on this compared to the 9100 PRO. Sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash and it too is TLC. The endurance rating for this is the same as that of the 9100 PRO. Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen4, M.2 2280, MZ-V9P2T0B/AM: $149.99 (Shipped and Sold Amazon US) || $149.99 (Shipped and Sold by Newegg US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
