Outlook won't open on my laptop

Hello
Is anyone having a problem opening Outlook on their laptop?
I have the icon on my taskbar and it was working fine earlier but now it won't open at all, despite rebooting several times and doing a virus scan.
I've also tried repairing it by going into the app settings but that hasn't worked.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

    "Outlook" these days comes in about two thousand different variations.

    Is this Outlook as in Outlook.com, the old Hotmail?
    Outlook as in Outlook that comes as part of Office?
    Outlook which is the replacement for the Mail app?

    Outlook opens fine for me. I have had this happen once or twice, look for a very recent system restore point and restore the PC / Laptop. That will sort it.

    Search "System restore" then click "Recovery options" and go from there.
