Hello.
Using Outlook 2019 on my Windows 10 machine. Under File and Account Settings there are two places to perform a repair: Account Settings and under Manage Profile. If I need to perform a repair which one should I use?

Either. It's two different routes to the same place. Microsoft refers to the first, probably because it's one click less:

Hi,

Choosing which repair process you need to follow, Is based on the problem you are encountering.

If you can describe the nature of your problem and give any relevant details you could collect, will greatly help.

Thanks for your replies. Not having any issues at the moment. Just want to know for when a problem arises.

Thanks

Depending on the problem that arises will only then dictate the action(s) that need to be taken

Good luck

Interesting heading, because I assumed it meant, "Which third-party tools for repairing Outlook?" Any comments?
