Outlook 365 Dialog Font Too Small In Popup Dialogs

Hi!

"I have met the enemy, and the enemy is me!" 🙄

I want 3 shortcuts on my Windows Start Menu: Email, Calendar and Contacts. Ideally each shortcut would launch Outlook with the proper command line parameters to select the desired function.

The "obvious" way to create the shortcuts works fine until you pin them to the Start Menu. At that point Program Manager treats all the shortcuts as if they were the same.

This is apparently not an uncommon problem. I've seen reports of people having similar problems when they create multiple shortcuts to launch the same application with different command line parameters, and then pin them to the Start Menu. I implemented the suggested workaround and I ended up with three different shortcuts that I could pin to the Start Menu.

Hooray! 😁 Almost. 😥 That workaround appears to confuse Outlook. As I originally reported, some of the fonts went goofy. I also discovered that when viewing/changing my accounts I was presented with the old account setup UI instead of the new one. (I actually prefer the old one. 😀) I'm suspecting that other gremlins were lying in wait.

So, I backed out the suggested workaround and invented one of my own.

So far, so good.

Cheers!
