The Outlook will disable those plug-ins automatically that cause the system to crash and so you don’t need to fix them. Those programs that affects the performance of the system is not fixed automatically and so they should be manually fixed. The concept is to disable all the add-ins that causes the system to run slow.
• Even the PST files may consume more space and cause slowing down of the computer. You can fix this by creating a new PST or Personal Storage file. All files and data sent, saved and received will be copied and saved in Outlook. With time, more data will be saved and it will use up more space causing the computer to slow down. You can create a new PST file by going to File> Data File Management to locate the Data Files. Select the Add option and select PST. Click Ok to confirm the selection. Add the name for the file and type it in the Create Microsoft Personal Folder box. Discard the old PST file.
