This question isn't really something for ServerFault - Outlook (and related `pst` file) is a desktop app. Maybe ask on SuperUser? – David Makogon Mar 15 '16 at 01:30

Press control+alt+del - select 'task manager' - select the 'Processes' tab - and make sure there are no outlook.exe entries in the list. If there are, click on it to highlight it and click end process. Say yes to any subsequent questions about whether you are sure you want to end the process. Maybe this post can help you out. https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/82b432a2-12e7-46f7-b27d-46a1a94c23f7/how-to-get-outlook-recovery?forum=officeitpro Good luck)
