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
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Clicking on the three dots lets me save the email not the attachment. We are looking for the save as feature for the attachments to work in the new version like it does in the classic version or they will never be able to convert all of us happily.
Also you cant drag a attachment and drop it somewhere else like in another email or folder.
You cannot drag from the inbox to the calendar either. That is an absolute must. It is so quick and efficient to create meeting invites in the classic Outlook by dragging from the Inbox to the Calendar.
I don't know how helpful it may be (I haven't gone through it in detail as yet,the article jsut arrived) but here is an option that may be worth considering - https://www.pcworld.com/article/2235192/thunderbird-perfect-mail-in-2024.html.
Great suggestion for those who have a choice. Those of us stuck with using the Office Suite and Outlook at our jobs don't have the option to change programs. Millions of us are spending hours every week struggling with this stupid attachments issue. I don't think the devs at MS have any idea of how the programs are used in the real world.
