When I open MS to Do app and open whether it is an email flagged or a task from my planner in teams when I try to open it, it opens in the web-based instead of the desktop. Am I missing a connector to my desktop or something?

Within Outlook 365 you can add apps to the left hand column.
Add ToDo app
Then select Todo (from new shortcut in Outlook)
When a task is selected you can then open the saved email in Outlook
Not true.
The connection from Outlook to ToDo app is broken. It doesn't matter if from Outlook app or Outlook web, when you click on the ToDo "Functionality" it always opens the web version of ToDo.
If what you say worked, it wouldn't be a workaround, but the solution to the problem.
Nah. I gave up on ToDo and switched to Todoist. Congrats to Microsoft, I still don't understand the rationale of all this, because I refuse to think they are just "idiots"...
As a workaround you can use the Todo Functionality within Outlook. Then it opens the e-mails within the app and not in the web.
False. Clicking on the To-Do app in Outlook brings me to the web.

How has this not been fixed yet, given the overwhelming evidence that it is a necessary feature for most ToDo app users? If the developers aren't skilled enough to do this simple task, hire new ones. Microsoft is certainly rich enough. Smart enough, though? Probably not. Pathetic people.
