  1. Change to the email view.
  2. Right-click the personal folder (via the inbox).
  3. Select Data file properties in the context menu.
  4. Click Advanced in the open window.
  5. Click OK to leave the dialog.

The name should now be correct.

Start Outlook again - InLoox will now load properly.
