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-...
OK this is weird. I previously posted a fairly long-winded way to get rid of the friendlier link formatting.
Today I put a link in an email and as usual it made it a friendlier link. I then pressed backspace and it made it a normal link - just like that! I don't know if this has always been the case or is due to an Outlook update but thought I would share. 🙂
myhelmethat's Ctrl+z method above also just miraculously started working where it didn't before (for me anyway)! There is hope left in the world after all!
