I have the same issue, Outlook will not start at all, and just says "Something is wrong with one of your data files..." I have 3 email addresses, One is an Outlook address, and the other two are MAPI. The problem file is one of the MAPI accounts.

Just a few additional remarks.

The issue seems to happen with Outlook 2016 client in C2R-Installs (Office 365). There is a Workaround to fix that Outlook crash, caused by a broken PST file - see my blog post below from June 22, 2020: Outlook: June 2020 updates and PST issues?

This night (June 24, 2020) Microsoft has released this support article, confirming the bug and also my explanations given in den blog post.
