The error "Cannot load "MAPI32.dll". Please install MAPI" means a required component (MAPI) is missing from your computer.

Solution

We've provided a MAPI Fixit Tool below to replace the missing component. Complete the following steps on the computer you send emails from:

  1. Close AccountRight.
  2. Right-click the following link and choose to save the file to your Desktop: MAPI Fixit Tool.
  3. Double-click the downloaded ZIP file to open it. You'll see it contains a single file called CheckMAPI.VBS
    Image
  4. Double-click the file CheckMAPI.VBS to open the tool.
    If this warning appears, click Yes, open this file.

    If prompted to run as Administrator, click Yes.
  5. Follow the on-screen prompts to run the tool and fix your issue.

If you need to undo the changes made by this tool, double-click the file CheckMAPI.VBS to run the tool again. You'll then have the option to restore your original Windows settings.
