When I press delete - like in any other Microsoft tool, i mean delete the immediate text. But for some reason, Outlook started to use this key to delete e-mail. Where can I swich it off?
It´s really frustrating, I really wonder how people at Microsoft think. For example, they added annoying function where I have to first confirm editing a Word file before I start editing it (WHY?). But now I can accidentally delete an entire e-mail by a very predictable action. WHY! Just stop changing things for worse. Everytime I reinstall my windows, I need to go through the ordeal of swiching all these "bright ideas" off.

My issue has been gone but I do not know how. I did not do anything.

This is very annoying. I've been unintentionally deleting emails every day. Please fix this.
Same problem here & I'm even using a MICROSOFT keyboard. This really needs to be fixed!!!
