I am using New Outlook and no longer have the ability when adding or deleting an attendee from a calendar event to only send to those added or deleted. The "Send" button doesn't have a drop down it send to everyone on the list every time a change is made to the attendee list.

    For New Outlook this feature is currently released to Targeted Release at 100%. It should start going to production any day now. I had previously put my test tenant users on Targeted Release, and I do see the feature now when updating meetings. If you urgently need this functionality, ask your Tenant Admin to put you on Targeted Release, Set up the Standard or Targeted release options - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn. It's not complicated to for the Tenant Admin to do this so should be a reasonable request.

    Here is the dialog I saw today when testing it. Looks like the button is not drawing properly on my machine but it worked fine.

    Do you know if this bug was ever fixed? I am having the same issues 10 months later (in New Outlook desktop app, version 1.2024.829.100)

    I'm still having this issue so am reverting back to the Classic version of Outlook. Frustratingly, it doesn't appear to be functionality that is in the New Outlook.

    Any updates on timeframes for this please? Had the same issue today when trying to add one recipient to a meeting - this is so frustrating.

    Their MC communication was updated yesterday:

    Updated August 20, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

    Coming soon to Microsoft Outlook: When updating meeting attendees, organizers will be prompted to send updates only to added or removed attendees or to send updates to all attendees. This message applies to Outlook for the web and New Outlook for Windows.

    This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 394687.

    When this will happen:

    General Availability (GCC): We will begin rolling out late August 2024 (previously late July) and expect to complete by late September 2024 (previously late August).

    How this will affect your organization:

    Before the rollout, organizers who updated meeting attendees were not prompted with Send options.

    After the rollout, the default state is on and this feature will be available to all users.

    What you need to do to prepare:

    This rollout will happen automatically by the specified dates with no admin action required before the rollout. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.

    I agree I feel like this new version has gone backwards!
