As noted by someone else, on Vista/Windows 2008 (and probably Windows 7) it is located at:
C:\Users\{username}Microsoft\Outlook
NOTE: Replace {username}
sure sign is an Outlook.xml of 0 kb.I deleted it and was back in Outlook.
Thansk again!
However the "Outlook.xml" was not 0, this was not working for me perfectly.
Cheers!
Finally!! my "outlook.xml" in that files was 3kb and I took the chances, deleted it and Outlook opens for me!!

The Run command is what definitely worked.
This is the issue. I have Windows 7 and Outlook 2007.
Start
Run
Type 'resetnavpane
Hit Enter
This is the solution without a doubt.

I had the cannot start outlook, invalid XML error after my Windows XP PC crashed.
I deleted the Outlook.xml file from C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.
This fixes the problem and outlook.xml is recreated when you start outlook.

I work at MS Outlook every day. To my mind I know this tool quite well. But one day before yesterday I was astonished,because of all my emails had been lost. I didn't know what to do next. By sheer chance a friend called me up and advised - outlook 2003 cannot view my sent items folder. It turned out the utility was very good and resolved my issue for a minutes and without money. Moreover the software helped my brother too. He thanked me a lot.
Re: Error "Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Outlook cann

Re: Error "Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Outlook cann

I tried the outlook.exe / resetnavpane and it worked like a charm!

Thank you - Thank you - Thank you!!!!!
Re: Error "Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Outlook cann
The roaming subdirectory worked. Just rename the xml and Office data file to something else. I presume you could delete also. I had not seen the "outlook.exe /resetnavpane" or I would have tried that first.

Locate your outlook.xml file in following folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
Cut and paste it to windows front page
Restart outlook.
It worked with me and is very simple indeed.
