Hi,

I am using the "new" Outlook for Windows. It seems that it is no longer possible to move a folder from a shared mailbox to the favorites folder. This used to be possible in the "old" version. Is this feature gone or am I overlooking something?

Thanks for your help.

    Well, that's a bummer. I actually had to click on the FAVORITES at the top to add it. There wasn't the right-click option.

    Not everyone can favorite a shared folder in the new Outlook yet. Our company has not turned on that function as of yet. So, I'm stuck scrolling down and to view my shared Global Mailboxes or stay with the old Outlook where I have those inboxes saved as a favorite.

    You can add the shared inbox as a favorite, just not a specific folder within the inbox.

    Ik wil geen folder of account aan favorieten toevoegen maar alleen de inbox van de verschillende gedeelde mailboxen.
