Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The ads are how Microsoft makes the money to keep Outlook free.
You can upgrade to Outlook Plus (paid) to be rid of them permanently.
If you have PLUS and ads please contact the Billing Department.
If you are using Firefox you can use either popup blocker or No-script but neither will reclaim the space the ads take up.
First off, DON'T SHOUT! Don't you know how to unlock your Caps lock? Very rude.
Secondly, cutting & pasting e-mail is not the focus of this thread, which is about removing ads on the screen, since not Ad Block-type software removes them.
You're just trying to print your e-mail without the ads showing and any text editor will do that.
Not really,
DID YOU EVER GET AN ANSWER TO THIS. I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE TO COPY THE E-MAIL THEN PASTE IT TO A WP DOCUMENT TO NOT HAVE THE ADS PRINTED. THANKS
I have found that if I click on the icon at the top of the ad panel, it sort of removes the ads. Admittedly, it does bring up slightly larger panel saying 'Can't connect to Messaging', but at least every time I click on an email to read it, I don't have to wait for the ads to load before the email does!
