The folder that automatically opens when you start Outlook is referred to as the Startup folder. Normally it is your Inbox folder that appears first and from there you can open one of your other folders.
Outlook allows you to configure which folder should be displayed when Outlook is opened. For example, you may want to have your Calendar or Tasks displayed.
To change the startup folder in Outlook:
- From the Tools menu, click Options.
- Click the tab labeled Other.
- Click the Advanced Options button.
- Use the drop down arrow beside the Startup in this folder option and select the startup folder you want to use.
- Click OK to close the Advanced Options dialog box.
- Click OK to close the Options dialog box.
