SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to add components to Outlook 98, you receive the following error message on the Outlook 98 Component Install page:

An unknown error occurred during installation.



CAUSE
If you are using a version of Outlook 98 that has been installed using the Outlook Deployment Wizard (ODK), installed components and options are set by the administrator. These options cannot be changed by the user, and using Add Components will fail.



WORKAROUND
In order to add components, the administrator needs to create a new build of Outlook 98 using the ODK that contains the new components. This new version can then be deployed to the users.
