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

    22nd of August and the "Save As" is still not present. How long is this basic feature going to take to develop. I will have to revert to the Old Outlook until it works.

    Thank you but we are looking for the Save As option to save selected folders, not to send to a downloads folder first.

    You can add a save option by going to:

    settings - mail - customize actions - tick the box for Save (half way down on the right hand side).

    To Save:

    Double click email

    Click the three dots in the top right corner

    Click save (will be downloaded to downloads folder)

    Enjoy!
