Add folder from a shared mailbox to favorites

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.

    I have the same build, but I can't seem to find any new context menu option to add an inbox folder under 'Shared with Me' to Favourites.

    I can pin the Favourites section so it floats above other items, but when I try to add it from there, it only allows me to pin the contact.

    Hi Paul,

    How do you do it? I've tried searching it and I can add the account but not the inbox. I've tried dragging it and that doesn't work. I'm on the same version as you.

    Thanks,

    Simon

    Yes, they finally managed to add this functionality.

    I'm running

    Hi Jessa,

    What version are you running? I can add the shared folder to the favourites but I cant add the individual sub folders unless I'm missing something.
