What's something about Microsoft Outlook that drives you crazy?
What's something about Microsoft Outlook that drives you crazy?
Obligitory "I have to use it for my job," so let's commiserate.
It's the worst program in all of the Office Suite. MS wrote the goddamn OS and email client, but for some reason if I have two instances open for two different inboxes and try to pull one up on the taskbar, the wrong instance will pull up every single time without fail.
My runner-up complaint is how when I use the search bar, sometimes it'll forget what I'm doing and when I hit enter it'll open some email instead of executing the search.
Every update makes it worse, so what drives you crazy?

Jesus. Basically everything about it. We use the web client at work, so might be a different set of annoyances.
deep breath I use slashes in 70% of the e-mails I write as the punctuation mark that they are - I have never and will never want it to start randomly guessing what files I want to attach to the e-mail when I type a slash.
I actually didn't hate that if you typed something like "23rd" it would make the rd super-script - until the day it started doing it so incredibly wrong that it would super-script the '3' and the 'r' and change the 'd' to a 'th' so it read "23rth".
Several times per day it will show a folder name in bold with a number in parenthesis telling me I have new messages in that folder, but when I click on the folder it highlights nothing as new messages, so I have to just remember what the last message I actually read was. Search sucks. Rarely can I open attachments. I told a coworker just yesterday that if they want to keep something secret from me, their best bet is to put the secret in an e-mail attachment and e-mail it to me.I think the bad superscript is not a thing on the desktop app. I wonder if that's AI learning autocomplete
