No longer able to "Find related messages in this conversation" in Outlook Preview
I used to use the "Find related messages in this conversation" and "Find messages from Sender" several times a day. These options seem to have gone now. Can they be reactivated, or has this feature been removed now?

Hello, when I try to preview a txt or html attachment in Outlook 2019 x64 (on Win 10 20H2 x64) email I've got an error: This file cannot be previewed because of an error with the following previewer: Windows TXT previewer (Html Previewer) To open this file in its own program, double-click it. And it is ok with xlsx, docx, pdf and images previews. PreviewHandlers key is in the Registry and seems to be ok. Also I have no previews at all (blank preview without any text, except images and videos) in Explorer Preview pane (for what it's worth).It’s now easier to access iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts in Outlook
We’re excited to announce that the new Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook for iOS and Android now support easier iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts access. You no longer need to create and enter app-specific passwords to access your iCloud data in Outlook apps. Now using the OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol, simply sign in with your Apple Account to access your iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts in Outlook. If you already have iCloud set up in Outlook, in the coming months you will be asked to sign in, which will reauthenticate using the new OAuth 2.0 flow. Availability The ability to access iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts using the new authentication flow is rolling out across the new Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook for iOS and Android. If you attempt to access iCloud data and are presented with the previous Basic Authentication flow (prompting for an app-specific password), ensure you’ve updated to the latest Outlook app version and restart Outlook. For classic Outlook for Windows users, we recommend trying the new Outlook for Windows, which provides both the new authentication flow and built-in support for iCloud Mail, Calendar, and Contacts without the need for an Outlook add-in. Feedback We would love to hear from you. To submit your feedback, select: Help > Feedback in the new Outlook for Windows and Outlook for Mac Settings > Help & Feedback > Send Feedback in Outlook for iOS and Android
Seriously, with Full Screen Messages
Stopped using Outlook a year ago over the fact that when you click on a message it only opens about a quarter of the screen. Thought by now it would be fixed. What gives? Don't want to go back to old Outlook on PC as it's slow and hangs in the background and you have to kill it in Task Manager all the time. Any fixes for getting messages to open full screen? Appreciate any ideas and thoughts.Custom Search Folders in New Outlook
Does anyone know how to create Custom Search Folders in the new Outlook? At this point I only see a couple of standard searches. In the previous version of Outlook used Custom Search Folders: 1. To create a folder of messages with a specific Label 2. To create a folder to find all messages sent on a specific date. Does anyone know if this is possible? Or how I would go about to use the two described filters? At this point I also can't seem to be able to filter the inbox on Label.
New Outlook Randomly Assigning/Overriding Categories to Calendar Items
I use Categories to color code and organize my calendar. In the New Outlook, the system is randomly assigning categories to some of my calendar items. For example, I have one item that has no category assigned, but now it uses my "Misc Meeting" category. Another one I'd already labeled with the "Analyst Team" category and now it's added "Phone Call" to the item (which is making the wrong color display). In both of these examples, if I right click to access the categories and correct them (or even just "Clear all categories"), once I submit, after a few seconds the incorrect category labels and colors come back. Help?Flagged Emails in New Outlook: Set Reminders and Due Date
I understand that transitioning from Classic Outlook to New Outlook can be intimidating and frustrating, especially regarding the feature changes. I'm here to help you navigate through the differences and make the switch as smooth as possible. You can access your flagged emails via the MyDay icon located in the top menu. Here are the steps to set reminders, due dates, and more. 1) Select the My Day icon 2) Click on the To-Do Tab (Note: Usually, this tab defaults to 'Tasks' for the primary mail account.) 3) If you manage multiple accounts, choose the correct mail account. 4) Select Flagged Emails: All flagged items for the select account will appear here 5) Right-click on any flagged item, and you will see many settings, including Set Reminder and Set Due date. I understand that completing the requirement involves many steps. It can be challenging, but I expect more improvements in the future. I hope this helps. /Teresa #traccreations4e 01/18/2024
Outlook broke after Office 365 update to 16.0.19328.20158 – cannot open emails Windows Server 2016
Hello everyone, posting to report that after the latest automatic update to Microsoft Office 365 version 16.0.19328.20158, we are experiencing a critical issue on multiple company machines running Windows Server 2016: The Outlook desktop application launches normally, but when trying to open any email, the following error appears: “There was a problem opening this item... The text formatting command is not available... Reinstall Microsoft Outlook.” Launching Outlook in safe mode (Outlook /safe) does not help. Creating the FORMS2 folder (suggested workaround) does not fix it. Attempting a downgrade via OfficeC2RClient.exe fails with error 30183-27 (400). Quick/online repair from Control Panel also has no effect. In our environment, this issue appeared simultaneously on many workstations and servers, right after the Office update today. Temporary solution: We are instructing users to access their mail via Outlook Web App (OWA), which is not affected by this bug. We would like to know: If others have experienced this bug with this build, including on Windows Server 2016 If any working workaround exists, or an official fix timeframe from Microsoft Thanks to anyone who can share their experience or updates!What do you think about RSVP in Outlook?
