Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • stealthydragon Winter Wonder Derg (@stealthydragon) reported

    How can @Outlook be such a terrible user experience and still be like the most used email client for business? How do you screw up the ability to open an image and view it separately on desktop? On my phone I tap an image it brings up a viewer. On desktop it does nothing.

  • trading4waves2 Justin Lee (@trading4waves2) reported

    @Outlook How come @outlook is not informing their users about the server outage?

  • KiPos_info boosted Bobby Tables (@KiPos_info) reported

    reproducible #outlook for windows crashes on multiple computers when hovering contacts. looks like a new issue for today @MSFT365Status @Outlook. version 15330.20298 which is obviously yesterdays patch...

  • HaggisKiwi Phil D 🚫🍍🍕💉💉💉💉 (@HaggisKiwi) reported from Wellington City, Wellington

    Anyone having issues with work emails in #Outlook today? Not seeing anything specific to #APAC on @MSFT365Status or @Outlook #WorkQuestion

  • adamhatak Adam Hatak (@adamhatak) reported

    @Outlook Hey @Outlook any updates here? Just a friendly reminder 😎 Wondering what is the issue here. 🤨

  • DonaldTreeHive Donald Farmer (@DonaldTreeHive) reported

    @SQLAllFather @Outlook I don’t understand why MSFT are so bad at this aspect of design. Trans is dreadful. Outlook too. People need to be able to switch off notifications. It’s not a nice-to-have. It’s a critical issue for the emotional health of many users.

  • domsalisbury Dom (@domsalisbury) reported

    @aahendry @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Terrible. Just seen this. I didn't really need another reason to move to ProtonMail, but Microsoft has given me one!

  • shep shep (@shep) reported

    I swear @Outlook is the worst. Have constant issues where the sign in screen appears then goes away without any interaction. Every suggestion from their support fails to resolve the issue and now contacting help through the app errors out.

  • jjenreich Jen Reich (@jjenreich) reported

    .@MicrosoftHelps is Outlook for Mac down? My inbox has not updated since last night! @Outlook #Outlook

  • jenbrown908 Jennifer Brown (@jenbrown908) reported

    @Outlook yo, fix the security on your site so I can actually check my email!

  • valkemarr Valke Mercado (@valkemarr) reported

    @Outlook please confirm how to fix the constant closing and reopen of your app? Since yesterday this has been a headache.

    @KiPos_info @MSFT365Status @Outlook we are having the same issues. Bad patch?

  • mkabir Moushumi Kabir (@mkabir) reported

    @Outlook Ok, let's try again. Block isn't working - I never mentioned phishing. Zero need to read through your 💯 useless article. To note, ongoing issue since 7/12. @Office @Microsoft

  • deanleigh Dean Leigh (@deanleigh) reported

    Agghh @Office365 why have you broken 'Dictate' in @Outlook . The command 'New Line' now writes the words 'New Line'. The newly added 'Auto Punctuation' doesn't seem to do a thing. Why have you broken something that was so good?

  • BoomerDea Boomer Dea (@BoomerDea) reported

    Hey @Microsoft your iOS @Outlook app is broken. Selecting text and then typing doesn’t delete the selected text. Most apps were doing this by default back in the 90s!

  • iamjessbarnes JAB! (@iamjessbarnes) reported

    @Outlook your app is not working. What is going on? It keeps freezing #outlook

  • Torchwoodfan7 Torchwoodfan7 (@Torchwoodfan7) reported

    @Outlook @mkabir @Outlook I can't seem to send emails to my outlook nor am I receiving any emails, what's happened and how do I fix it? I can't get through to support either.

  • sdunn_dev Shannon Dunn (@sdunn_dev) reported

    @Outlook your web account creation is terrible. Your robot checker needs alot of work.

  • emnaitore naitore (@emnaitore) reported

    @Outlook Hello. I can't recover my outlook email because the recovery form asks for the last emails I sent. The account has never sent any emails. I explained the issue in your dm. Please check.

  • pekka_valkonen Pekka Valkonen (@pekka_valkonen) reported

    @nnevatie @Outlook I have the same issue #Outlook

  • ChrisFalk ChrisFalk (@ChrisFalk) reported

    @Outlook Please. I'm begging you. STOP trying to get me to use New Outlook for Mac. I am not some luddite who hates change. New Outlook is just genuinely terrible for power users.

  • RedgeJahreis Reggy Jahreis (@RedgeJahreis) reported

    @KiPos_info @MSFT365Status @Outlook Got a temporary fix for this: In elevated cmd: - cd %programfiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\ClickToRun - officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.15225.20394
