When i select the outliner from the menu above it wont come up.This looks like a problem i had long ago with my hypershade that did the exact same thing.Someone told me to delete some preference folder or somehting like that and Maya would replace it automatically like new.Can anyone tell me what folder or directory i have to delete so the outliner can be restored?Thanks for any help. user added image

It's possible that it actually is coming up, but it's opening as a minimized window. That's a common issue when using Win XP.

Hiya, I have exactly the same problem but tried minimizing windows around the place and still no dice.

I can't get outliner back up and.. well I would really like to resolve this problem... because the outliner makes my life a lot easier being pretty new to this software...

Hypergraph just won't quite cut it the same..

I've tried rebooting, opening different projects, starting new projects, every time, same response, no outliner.

if I go into panels > Panel > Outliner is there but it is greyed out....

any help would be appreciated MAJORLY
