    Here is the Known Issue to track fix status, Outlook unexpectedly opens a browser window if OWA is disabled - Microsoft Support. We are expecting the fix in mid April.

    Updating my hosts file with the following entry stopped me from getting this issue. How Outlook continues to function after this I have no idea.

    C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts

    127.0.0.1 outlook.office.com
