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

Anonymous

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.

I had this same issue on my Mac. I reloaded the software several times. Then I figured my problem out. I was tapping twice on the Outlook icon to get it to open and it was opening multiple tabs. When I stopped that and clicked only once it has seemed to stop having this problem. Don't know if it fixes it permanently or if it will work for you but it so far has helped me.

Deleting ~/Library/Saved Application State/com.Microsoft.Outlook then CMD+W on each open Inbox window worked for me - thanks!
