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!

    How many people have to complain about this and request this feature before MS actually do something about it?

    Apparently Microsoft doesn't care enough about their product users to actually do something useful for us. They just want to take our money and hope, over time, we'll get tired of complaining and just shut up about the idiocy they're doing with their products.

    I can't believe this was an issue in 2023 and it still hasn't been added as a feature again when old outlook had it. This really shows how good Microsoft is as a company. Really disappointing and makes the working office world just that more more inefficient. Step it up already, just re-add the existing feature again rather than taking them away.

    Why is this still an issue? You still cannot drag attachments out of outlook onto the desktop. This response is from over 2 years ago and still no resolution? This is a basic user feature. Will this ever be added back into outlook?
