How to remove "friendlier link" formatting in Outlook?
In April, Microsoft introduced "friendlier" links when linking to a file in OneDrive or SharePoint. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/friendlier-link-names-in-email-02040f47-bd56-4806-8311-...

"Undo" (or CTRL + z) should remove the friendly style.
As soon as you insert a link, and the link gets reformatted, then before doing anything else, do a CTRL+z and it should revert back to a normal looking link. It works the same as when Microsoft auto-corrects something and you don't want it auto-corrected. In my work we use WOs to signify Work Orders, and MS would autocorrect to Wos. A CTRL-z after the change would put it back to WOs for me.
