I like the new look for new outlook, but the problem I am having is that you cannot use drag and drop feature. I don't want to download all the content because I deal with heavy amount of invoices. I hope this is great feedback for Microsoft and get raised attention and get quickly implemented. Hope to get a quick response and help. Thanks for the support!

    Drag and drop is a key part of the system functionality and needs to be restored NOW.

    Also the To Do bar needs to be accessible on main screen as per previous version

    How do I do this? We truly understand how frustrating it is, at this moment, please toggle off the New Outlook as a workaround." I am disinterested in the New Outlook as a result of its shortfalls.

    Yes agreed,

    I don't like change, I have ADHD, and tech is a big cause of anxiety for me. For me, I just can't stand that we can not drag and drop emails themselves, or attachments.

    "Toggling" between is also a pointless suggestion when you can just stay in the old outlook and do everything you want. The purpose of a "New" version, is to improve on the old one. I don't see how this is an improvement in any way shape or form I'm afraid. Considering we have to pay for all this, I'm not sure why you don't take feedback on board and give people what they require.

    It kinda makes the whole "Please give us feedback" nonsensical when you don't change things back.

    Well said. My OCD sympathises with your ADHD. Tech "experts" don't seem to consider or respect those of us with mental issues when they make "improvements".

    I agree entirely. The absence of this feature has dramatically reduced my efficiency and created a bottleneck in my workflows. It is extremely frustrating. Microsoft, please add this feature back in.
