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
Using Classic Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management

It has now been 6 months since this was raised. Seems crazy that they haven't fixed it yet.
Attachments will be a "thing" for a long time, and what is most ridiculous is that the save as option exists in the mac and browser versions but not yet in the "flagship" desktop app.
How do I revert back to classic?
As of 12.19.2023, I seem to have Save As now...when I click Download, it opens a Save As window and I can direct the location and name the file... The only feature I still don't have is drag-and-drop to save... We're making progress, people!
I can save one file but not the 10 that come in on one email:/ Which is frustrating because it takes forever to process each file now. This was a huge step backwards for Microsoft.
Yes, here in our marketing department we get people sending a dozen photos at a time, and they don't always zip them. Without the ability to drag and drop them into a folder, it's pure hell.
