Follow these simple steps to do that:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 First, launch Internet Explorer on the computer. Then connect to the RPC server or any other secure server by typing https:\/\/www.server_name.com\/rpc in the address bar. Hit Enter.<br \/>\n\u2022 You can see a padlock icon located in the lower-right corner of the browser. Double click it.<br \/>\n\u2022 Now click the Details tab. Here you need to check the information in these two fields:<br \/>\n<em>Valid to<\/em>: In this field, you\u2019ll see the date till how long the certificate will be valid.<br \/>\n<em>Subject<\/em>: Make sure the entry in this field should match the site name.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_2_Install_Trusted_Root_Certificate\"><\/span>Method 2: Install Trusted Root Certificate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If the above method fails or doesn\u2019t work, you should try to fix the error code 8 in Outlook by installing the trusted root certificate. Follow these simple steps to do that:<br \/>\n\u2022 On the Certificate dialog box, click the Install Certificate. Then click the Next button to continue the process.<br \/>\n\u2022 Now click the Place all certificate in the following store check-box. Click the Browse button.<br \/>\n\u2022 Click the Trusted Root Certification Authorities, and then click OK. Now click the Next button to continue the process.<br \/>\n\u2022 Finally, click Finish and OK.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_3_Remove_3rd_Party_Add-ins\"><\/span>Method 3: Remove 3rd Party Add-ins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019ve tried both the above methods but still receiving the error code 8 in Outlook, maybe the error is associated with the 3rd party add-ins. So it\u2019s better to start the Outlook client in safe mode. Click Start &gt; Run and type outlook.exe\/safe, and hit Enter. If the Outlook client starts in safe mode with no problem, the real culprit is any of the 3rd party add-ins you\u2019re using. If there are too many add-ins, it\u2019s always difficult to find the faulty one. So before you can delete any, you should try to disable them one by one. This process may take some time, but you\u2019ll find the faulty add-in which you need to remove from the Outlook client.<\/p>\n<p>Also Read- <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sysinfotools.com\/blog\/repair-outlook-profile\/\"><strong>How to repair Outlook profile<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes 3rd party browser add-ins can also cause this issue.
