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

    Hi

    I've read the thread above about turning 'New Outlook' off but I can't find a button to do this. Has the Save As function been re-instated yet and if not is the classic option still available as I too need to save attachments under different folders.

    Thanks for your help.

    I am still on the old version. Looking for an alternative since Microsoft has not fixed this issue.

    We have outlook/office 365 installed on our desktops, not using it in the cloud, and on the desktop version it has a toggle button "Try the new Outlook" and you can just turn it off and go backwards. Same thing in Teams "Try the new Teams", but I haven't done.
