Riched20.dll

Tagged Under : ,

Outlook.exe caused an ‘access violation’ fault in module Riched20.dll at 014f:4802bc95

You may receive this error message when attempting to start Microsoft Outlook. When you click OK on the error message the application will close down and you will be unable to access Outlook. Alternatively you might receive a similar error message when you attempt to create a new email. You will be unable to write the email but you should still have access to the Outlook program.

The solution to this problem is to first rename the riched20.dll file and then to repair your version of Outlook. Rename the file so that it will not be called by any other application and so that you do not mistakenly copy over another dll that may be required for other applications. One method to ensure this does not happen is to rename the file riched20.old.
