I have enabled desktop notifications in the New Outlook app. But once I close the app, I don't receive notifications from the app. I have also enabled desktop notifications in the windows settings too. When I open the app, I get notifications of new emails being sent but once I close the app, I don't receive notifications anymore. It is extremely annoying and I have faced this same issue on another device with the same 'New Outlook'. I have faced this for a long time.
I use a Surface Laptop Go with 8GB RAM and
a 10th gen Intel Core i5 with 256 GB storage.
This laptop runs Windows 11 Pro.It was upgarded for Windows 10 Pro recently.

2024-07-30T06:44:07+00:00 Microsoft just woke up and the New Outlook feedback tool now tells you that it's a known issue and they "Working" on a fix.
Microsoft... When people tell you they don't want your new buggy stuff, the solution is NOT to force it on people.
New Teams was supposed to take less ressources and it doesn't. New outlook was supposed to be simpler, and it's not.
Just stop and keep what's working.

2024-07-09T20:34:27+00:00 finally called Geek Squad. The agent applied some advanced update under updates, then put outlook on high priority in notifications and I'm back in business. Thanks for your help. I wish I could tell exactly what the agent did step by step.
