If the above solutions didn&rsquo;t work for you, you can try repairing the PST file using the Inbox Repair tool. Follow the below steps to repair your Outlook data file:<\/p><ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"1\" style=\"list-style-type:1\">\n<li>Open the <strong>Cortana<\/strong> search box on your system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Type &ldquo;<em>SCANPST.EXE<\/em>&rdquo; in the search box and choose to open it.<\/li>\n<\/ol><p>Alternatively, you can open the Inbox Repair tool (SCANPST.EXE) directly from the File Explorer folder located at <strong>C:\/Program Files(x86)\/Microsoft Office\/<\/strong> or<strong> C:\/Program Files\/Microsoft Office\/. <\/strong>Refer this blog to know the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/find-scanpst-exe-location-in-ms-outlook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">location of scanpst.exe<\/a> based on your Outlook version.<\/p><ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\" style=\"list-style-type:1\">\n<li>Click on <strong>Browse<\/strong> and <strong>choose<\/strong> the Outlook.pst file you need to repair.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once selected, press <strong>Start<\/strong> to begin the scanning process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the <strong>Make a backup of the scanned file<\/strong> box before repairing it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on the <strong>Repair<\/strong> option to fix the PST file.<\/li>\n<\/ol><p>After this process, open your Outlook to check whether the rules marking emails as read have been resolved. However, if you are still getting the error, try using a third-party <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/outlook-pst-file-recovery.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Outlook PST recovery software<\/a>, such as <strong>Stellar Repair for Outlook<\/strong>. The software can help you fix the error by repairing the PST file. The software can repair severely damaged and large PST (50 GB or more) with complete integrity.<\/p><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-wrapping-up\"><a><\/a><a><\/a><a><\/a>Wrapping Up<\/h4><p>The Outlook error while reading rules from the server is quite common. You can go through the methods mentioned above to fix the rules issue. However, if nothing works, you can use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/outlook-pst-file-recovery.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stellar Repair for Outlook<\/a> to repair corrupt PST files to restore all mailbox items, such as emails, contacts, notes, etc. with complete integrity. Later, you can import the mail items into your new Outlook profile with working rules.
