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?

    Hello Riaan

    I'm Diane, an Office Apps & Services MVP specializing in Outlook, and I’m happy to help you today.

    At this time, it will only open in the on the web version of Outlook. This is because the To-Do app links to the web version of Tasks and uses deep links to link to the associated Outlook item.

    You can leave a suggestion that it open in Outlook desktop -
