Disable auto-delete of accepted meeting invites in the *new" Outlook?

The existing Outlook app for Windows has a setting to prevent calendar invites from being automatically sent to Deleted Items* when you accept them. Is this setting available in New Outlook?

Microsoft just announced that starting in 2024, the new Outlook will be the "official" one. I'm really concerned that features like this may be ignored when trying to reach feature parity. So, Is there an official feature request page for this? They exist for other Microsoft products I use, but I didn't find one dedicated to the New Outlook.

Thanks for your help with these topics!

*Deleted Items is the wrong choice even if I wanted this! Archive would be the smarter location for a modern email didn't. (But the best thing would be too simply not do actions the user didn't request!) Thanks again.

    The outlook.com outlook on the web has no such options, for reference I attached a screenshot of such. there was once options for this and it is a huge failure to remove options that many used, but what should we expect from micro trash then to keep screwing with things that are not broken.

    perhaps they will get around to fixing this someday???

    I may add that even in the link that was posted that article clearly refers to this option no longer existing in the outlook on the web, and the original instruction were for the older version that once had that option.

    That is very strange. Seems like a Microsoft issue. I would suggest making sure everything is up to date. I know it is a pain, but you could always remove the software and reinstall it to make sure you have the most up to date version.

    I am by no means an Microsoft guru I just know that this is what solved my issue. Hope you get this sorted quickly. I know it is very annoying. Not even sure why they would want to delete emails by default after accepting invites. There is almost always other information in the invite email other than just the place and time.

    Anyway. Good luck.
