Outlook keeps opening multiple windows on macbook (macOS Monterey ver 12.4)

when I run outlook on my macbook air, it opens up multiple windows (up to 50) automatically. this in return freezes up my application.

i've tried to create a new account and reinstall outlook where it will run as expected for a few months and then it restarts to open up multiple windows.

this has been ongoing from running BigSur and now on Monterey.

    If this is the only solution then Microsoft is more **** ier than I ever realised. I'm sick of the poor quality of your products. Biggest con in history how you managed to get the entire World to adopt a standard of mediocrity with your poor quality.

    Instead of making obvious suggestions about closing the multiple windows your product opens, why not just fix the product so it doesn't open multiple windows in the first place.

    Go to hell Microsoft.

    No need to go into the Dock to select All Window and do it one by one...as that was proving very painful indeed!!

    Quicker method that worked for me (Catalina OS on a 2012 Macbook Pro with latest Outlook) was to use the Shortcut Key of COMMAND W.

    Hold down the Command Key, and hit W 50 times in rapid succession.

    Hi,

    The only solution is to close each session one by one from the menu bar that worked for me.

    I am having the same issue, I have reinstalled Outlook, Delete Content Folder and still same issue.

    Please advice, I am now only using Mac Mail because Outlook can't function properly.
