After a recent update the format for the signature creator and editor has changed. I have lost access to all my previous signatures and when I try and recreate a signature with the same name, I am advised it already exists and cannot be over written. How can I access or delete my old signatures?

It's crazy! I don't have the registry key...I only have ONE email account and it still doesn't work. Nothing shows up under "Signatures on this device" but, it shows up fine in OWA!
So frustrating!!
Well, I fixed it (actually RIGGED it). Very stupid to have to spend time doing this.
Yesterday, my computer got updated (at a very awkward time, by the way). And...
ALL MY SIGNATURES ARE GONE!
What MORON decided this change would be a good idea? Existing customers had no notice, I cannot copy and paste my signatures to whatever this idiotic new option is, and all you have done is create more work for me. Now I am expected to rewrite and recreate my signatures and what? click on the appropriate signature every time I write a damn email? This is just bull and a MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. HUGE!
The person who proposed this needs to be fired along with everyone up the chain who approved and implemented it.
I honestly wish for ONCE Microsoft would ask ACTUAL CUSTOMERS what features they want to see before making changes like this. And for the love of God, don't make major changes like this without making it a VERY EASY FIX to disable them. I LITERALLY now have to schedule time to figure out how to fix this ridiculous feature.
What a damn pain in my ****.
Mine are show blank as if I didn't spend a lot of time creating signatures in the first, second, and third place. They were working perfectly fine before this update.
Seriously, MS should be required to put a plain english document out before implementing any changes other than those that do not affect the end user. Do they not have a user interface group to test this nonsense?
Absolute stupidity on someone's part!!!!!
