No 'SAVE AS' option for attachments in new Outlook desktop app

Dear All,

Outlook offered to switch my application to the new Outlook version (there is a switch item below the window close button).

It looks like the in-browser version and works better than the former, but it has a missing option in the attachments drop-down menu, called 'save as'.

We get a lot of documents in our emails, which should be saved in different projects' locations on a local hard drive. The in-browser version and the former desktop app have this option but this new app does not.

How can I add this function back again?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

István

    I went back to the old version too, it's just ridiculous to not be able to save attachments. MS has been at this for what, nearly 40 years, and they keep making these dumb mistakes.

    And as usual, I've probably spent 8 hours of time turning off all the "helpful" garbage and popups and autocompletes and whatever the heck Viva is.

    Can anyone recommend a good non-MS repalcement for Outlook that has a Save As option? I don't want to kowtow to the whims of the "Experts" at MS any more.

    Its October and this still hasn't been added. Im going back to the old version and hope that they get this fixed very soon. Very disappointing in my opinion.

    We don't all have a choice. Company decides.
