I am testing Outlook 2019 and Windows 10 in a virtual machine.
It is not possible to minimize Outlook immediately after startup by AWM.
Of course you can start Outlook by setting a shortcut minimized, but then the Outlook setting "hide if minimized" does not yet work and the task icon is not hidden after minimizing.
If Outlook is maximized and I disable and reactivate the rule, Outlook will be minimized.
(With Excel and Word, minimizing after startup works fine.)
Workaround: An AutoIt script which is started by the AWM rule and contains a delay of 5 seconds.

Hello, technoid
I was unable to reproduce the problem.
What versions of AWM and Outlook you're running?
Could you name the exact number of your Windows 10 build (type winver in the Search field of the Windows Start menu, press Enter. The Window containing the build number will appear).
Could you open the AWM log window (AWM tray icon context menu > Show log window) and enable logging in it. Reproduce the problem - open Outlook so that specific settings with enabled minmization at startup is applied to it, but minimization fails (clear log before opening Outlook). Then make a screenshot of the log window depicting all the entries that appeared during opening of Outlook and send it to us.
Best regards.

Hello, Bogdan
Thank you for your fast reply.
AWM: 8.14.1 and 8.14.2
Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit: 1903 Build 18362.418
MSO Pro Plus 2019 64-Bit: Outlook 1909 (Build 12026.20344 click-and-run) and 1910 Build 12130.20272 click-and-run)
I also tested the rule with deactivated window class and window name entry, so only with the program path. That doesn't work either.
I have changed my workaround and start Outlook with the following AutoIt script (as an exe file) via the task scheduler (on user logon, with a delay of 20 seconds):
Run("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\outlook.exe","",@SW_MAXIMIZE)
If ProcessExists("outlook.exe") Then
Local $hWnd=WinWait("[CLASS:rctrl_renwnd32]","")
Sleep(10000)
WinSetState($hWnd,"",@SW_MINIMIZE)
EndIf
Exit

For now as workaround you can enable the "Run keyboard macro" action in specific settings for Outlook and set <Win+Down> macro (the standard AWM minimize hotkey) with delay beginning from 0,3 seconds and more. This should minimize the Outlook window correctly.
Best regards.

This doesn't work with maximized windows. But <Alt+Space>n works for maximized windows (delay: 12 seconds). 
Best regards
