Thanks Microsoft @outlook for releasing a new version of outlook today and making it impossible to read or create new emails and for making me waste 2 hours of my time before I found out it was not something I had done. Thanks to the guy in Brazil for giving the fix.

I've been messaging in @MicrosoftTeams so much that I have been writing emails in @Outlook and hitting 'Enter' thinking I've sent the message. An hour later--when I think, "why didn't I get a response yet," I go back, facepalm, and hit 'Send.' *sigh* #Microsoft problems...

If you are experiencing the @Outlook blank message issue try this. Open a command prompt and run the following, it will roll back your update.: "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ClickToRun\officec2rclient.exe" /update user updatetoversion=16.0.13901.20462

The @Outlook outage this morning showed the world that there really is two types of people. The first type immediately calls their IT people (I live with a MSP dude and he was on calls ALL morning) and the second type just went to the browser, and continued working
