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.
Using Classic Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
That means users have started to find alternatives as Microsoft is not able to provide a fix for this problem.
It's shameful to Microsoft that there is no solution so far within last 2 years, in spite of so many users having a problem and reported to Microsoft.
Similar to this, I tested out a rule that copies invites received into an inbox subfolder folder and marks them as read. See rule settings screenshot below. For those who new to rules, in the new Outlook it is under Settings (gear symbol) > Mail > Rules.
Took me a while to select the folder that I created to house the copies, as the list of available destination folders didn't match what I saw in my left-hand folder list under Inbox, but it was there when I searched for it. So, now I have a copy of all invites received independent of main inbox and trash, if I ever need to go back and check one.
You could make a rule that copies it back into the inbox and marks it as read, so when you accept the original, the read copy is all that's left. But I feel like I wouldn't like seeing double invites in my inbox, and I actually have to scroll less when looking for old invites if they are archived in their own folder.
Thanks to @Daily_MS_User for the above workaround which gave me this idea. This issue is pretty much solved for me now.
The New Outlook is worse than the old outlook so it should be called a beta outlook or Rubbish Outlook. Now I have to manually move all the deleted messages of accepted invites to Inbox.
I see multiple users are requesting Microsoft for this feature. Is there any update from Microsoft ?
Yes. The new Outlook app does not have a file tab. The settings are altered from The view menu. Try as you might to search this menu of settings you will not be able to find a way to turn off that option the Microsoft representative said so as well in reply to the OPs post
