I am trying to work with Microsoft on this issue too, so feel free to ask any questions or make any comments and I’ll see if I can assist.Ok, I did as you instructed and the MS Utility gave this error message for Outlook 2016: This may drive you to change to Office 2016 CTR, Office 2016 64 bit, or even both – or leave you to work out how you can improve the experience, with potentially disabling Outlook addins that aren’t necessary. If you’re experiencing a less than great experience with Outlook 2013 or 2016, it’s worth understanding the above and seeing if you’re affected.
Referring to the TechNet article again on this issue, there’s no exact specific mention that LAA will come to the Click to Run version of Outlook 2016, so we’ll have to wait and see.

That makes sense if you’re using the Click to Run (CTR) version of Office 2016, but the MSI version that many still use hasn’t got this update yet. It’s already rolled out to Outlook 2016 build 1709. It doubles the amount of memory (4GB) available to the Office apps.

There is hope though for those of us who can’t go 64 bit (again the article has many suggestions), which is a new feature called Large Address Aware (LAA).

It only takes 1 addin for that idea to come crashing down, and then there’s the testing of all the re-written apps, and then deploying out an uninstall of the whole Office 2013 or 2016 32 bit suite, uninstalling all the addins, deploying Office 64 bit, deploying the new addins… it’s potentially a huge project to take on. This isn’t a short term realistic solution for many companies who have legacy 32 bit addons, or vendors who just haven’t got there with 64 bit addins yet. The article above is very well written and detailed, with the primary remediation suggestion being to go 64 bit Office. If your free memory is under 250MB, then you’re working below the requirements of what Outlook needs to have available to continue running smoothly. If you want to know that low memory is the cause of your issues, one way is to use the Sysinternals VMMap utility and follow these instructions. That’s sort of true, however it turns out it’s an overall memory issue with 32 bit Outlook having ~2GB of RAM to access, shared amongst all the 32 bit apps running on your computer. This has been an ongoing problem, and I suspected 3rd party addins to be the culprits. There’s also just Outlook crashing/freezing/running slow. Various rectangles appearing in the Outlook user interface (UI).The Navigation Pane failing to draw all folders properly.Email messages displaying either blank or black in the Reading Pane.Buttons on the Outlook ribbon failing to paint properly.They’re outlined on this TechNet article which lists: Since going from Outlook 2010 to 2016, I’ve noticed several issues. It seems to work, as I can see a lot more memory available for Outlook 2016 after this patch, and will update later once I can confirm the below issues are resolved.
