Outlook signature no longer able to be edited

I currently have several signature saved and they still show up as an option to use. However, if I go to edit any of them, one one comes up as an option to edit. The other signatures that I can use no longer are in the list. I would usually have about 20+ to choose from and edit. It is only showing my default signature

    You are amazing - thank you for sharing this. Worked for me!

    I had the same problem, and found that you need to change the email account to "Signatures on this device" to see the rest of them.

    Has anyone found a way to edit it from this though??????

    I agree!! Sure, I can now find my signatures, but I can NOT edit them! So while this was sorta helpful, it really didn't correct the issue at hand.

    Hi, Jennifer and Shannon--

    I found that technically they are editable, but instead of being able to click "Save," I have to just hit "OK" and then it saves that one signature, and then I have to reopen the box to do the next signature.

    However, I saw Lou C's post, which got to the heart of the problem. A recent Windows update moved the signatures off of the local drive and onto the cloud. I followed his link about disabling this "roaming" feature, specifically "Download and run a REG file to quickly update Windows registry," and now everything looks exactly like it used to!

    Hope this helps! If it does, thank Lou for figuring it out. :)

    I agree! This is happening to some of my users also. Glad we were able to mitigate it slightly, but a full fix where people can edit them would be much more helpful!
