I say yes, It opens a new program "Microsoft Outlook Inbox repair tool" and it proced to first make a backup copy and then to repair it. Then I can open Outlook, but afer some time 30 min, 1 hour... Outlook closes and say again the xxx.pst is corrupted.

It seems like your PST file is severely corrupted. I suggest you, repair your PST file with Inbox Repair Tool until it shows no error. In case if that does not work for you then you can go for a third party tool like Stellar Phoenix Outlook PST Repair software.

You can get software's demo version from here: https://www.stellarinfo.com/outlook-pst-file-recovery.php

I'm using the scanpst.exe to try to repair the ost files.
After it, it says "It has been repaired" But if I try to repari again it says that it must be repaired.
Here is the log after repairing:
