Hi,
Thanks for your question. Could you please share the detailed steps on how you appled the .PRF file?
"BackupProfile" is not included in the automatically generated PRF file. But in this TechNet article, it reference the property value as "False", as in "BackupProfile=False". You might want to have a try with this and see if issue persists.
Also, take a look at this article and see if it is helpful: https://ardamis.com/2012/08/17/outlook-2010-creating-backup-of-profiles-for-roaming-users/
I don't aware of an property in prf which can be used to configure Outlook Proxy.

Hi,
In the section of [Server List], change the line with UniqueService=No to UniqueService=Yes, then try again.
Also, have you ever tried to deploy this with a customization file (msp-file) in OCT?
