Outlook 2016 Cannot Open Because of Set of Folders

Full reinstall seems to have fixed it. Outlook itself was apparently corrupt.
Now that's just a little disturbing, or that's what we call uality programming (after the entire series of Dilbert comic strips about the company making a keyboard without a q.)

Yeah, this was pretty pathetic from an MS software perspective.

I see that you've resolved the issue but I'll add something to try for future visitors.
Start Outlook from the run box, or the start menu:
outlook.exe /resetfolders -

And you say you've used MS software before?
Not surprising.

Usually creating a new Outlook profile fixes things.
Long term fix is of course using something other than Outlook.
Good luck with that if you are in the MS ecosystem.
