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've been trying this regularly and found out just yesterday that the "download" option now prompts you to select a location to download the attachment.

    Better late than never, I guess!

    Still no prompt here, just goes to the downloads folder for me.

    4/10/2024 and i was shocked to see that this issue was reported so long ago. I did see a post that it would be rolled out in March, but has not been fixed as of today's date.
