NIS 2013 / Outlook 2010 error after upgrading from Windows 8.0 to 8.1

Hi all,

 

While I have seen similar symptoms, I have not seen these exact conditions mentioned anywhere here in the forums.

 

Today I upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1.

Prior to the upgrade, Norton Internet Security 2013 worked fine with Outlook 2010.  

After the upgrade, I get the following error when starting Outlook:

Again, I realize that other issues have given the exact same error message above, though none appear to be caused by upgrading Windows.

 

Currently, the only way I can run Outlook is by disabling the add-in.

The only changes seem to be Windows itself.  I do not know if LiveUpdate made any changes immediately after the Windows upgrade (how do I check?).

 

Any solutions please?
