Then something is wrong with your installation. Outlook creates the folder as soon as it needs it. It is always OLKxxxx where xxxx are one or more numbers. If the registry key for your office/outlook version is not there then outlook did not need an OLK folder yet. The OLK folder you are looking at might be left there for some other reason.

You can test this by opening the parent folder, starting outlook and opening a message with an attachment. The folder should be created as well as the registry key.

- Can you delete the folder manually?
- Does this happen on other machines or is it just your machine?
