New Outlook App Opens Tasks in My Browser, instead of Within the App
Teresa_Cyrus somewhat related. Can you tell me why New Outlook won't open in the desktop app now? It was but for the last two days it won't open and then scoots over to the web version, which isn't what I want. Also, in the web version, you can't have multiple Accounts in your list of folders and Favorites. You have to switch back and forth like in Teams, which is a PITA. In the desktop version I was able to keep all Accounts folders on the left side, now only one account opens
I tried using my New Outlook but couldn't replicate the problem you mentioned.
You're right about the web version's handling of multiple accounts. However, you can switch between accounts by following the steps in the image below. It's not as simple as Outlook Desktop and doesn't display all mailboxes in the left navigation for easy access, but it's still an option.
I advise that you give Microsoft feedback or vote on existing ones requesting multiple account functionality in the web version. Feel free to add your feedback link in this thread so others can vote.

Really, Microsoft? If I wanted web apps, I'd drop my subs for desktop apps and save money. Looks like I'm reverting again.
