    I have Office 2010, but when I click 'Settings' with the data file high lighted I don't get the 'Outlook Date File Password' box. I get I get a 'Microsoft Exchange' box with nothing about a password. Under the 'Security' tab there is a check box that says Always prompt for login credentials which I do not have checked.

Symptoms

When you try to create an Outlook profile or connect to a Microsoft Office 365 mailbox, you're continually prompted for credentials while the client displays a 'trying to connect...' message. If you cancel the credentials prompt, you receive the following error message:

The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.

More Information

To locate and view the registry setting for Anonymous Authentication in the Outlook profile, follow these steps.

Important

Modifying the Outlook profile by using the 'Profiles' registry path is not supported and may cause your Outlook profile to be in an unsupported state. Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you access it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur.

1. Open the Registry Editor.

   • In Windows 10, Windows 8.1, or Windows 8, press the Windows logo key+R to open the Run dialog box, type regedit.exe, and then click OK.
   • In Windows 7, click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press Enter. If you're prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Allow.

2. Locate the registry path appropriate for your version of Outlook:

   • For Outlook 2013

     HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice15.0OutlookProfiles

   • For Outlook 2010 and 2007

     HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows Messaging SubsystemProfiles

3. Under this subkey, locate and expand the name of your Outlook profile.

4. Under the profile, locate and expand the 9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676 key.

5. Under the 9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676 key, you see a subkey for each account in your profile. Select the first subfolder (00000001), and then examine the data of the Account Name binary value by double-clicking the value. Repeat this process until you find the Account Name value that includes your SMTP address. For example, the Account Name value points to guidopica@contoso.com under the 00000003 subkey.

6. Under the 0000000x subkey, locate the Service UID binary value. It represents a GUID (for example, c3 d1 9a 7b 80 1b c4 4a 96 0a e5 b6 3b f9 7c 7e).

7. Locate the subfolder in your profile that matches the GUID value identified in step 6 (for example, c3d19a7b801bc44a960ae5b63bf97c7e).

8. Under the subfolder that you found in step 7, examine the 01023d0d binary value. It represents a GUID (for example, 5f cf d5 f1 ba 5c 6f 45 b3 57 cc 5e 0d 16 94 58).

9. Locate the subfolder in your profile that matches the GUID value identified in step 8 (for example, 5fcfd5f1ba5c6f45b357cc5e0d169458).

10. Under the subkey found in step 9, examine the value of the 00036619 binary value. This value determines whether Outlook is using Anonymous Authentication.

    Binary: 00036619

    Data: 01 f0 00 80Anonymous Authentication

    Any other value represents an authentication method other than Anonymous.
