Email Attachments in the new version of outlook.

I use Outlook 16.86 for Mac. I don't see the point in the new, intermittent drop-down menu, which is only giving the options "Browse this Mac", the cloud, and "Insert link" (if I wanted to do that, I would have pressed that button and not "attach") and offers a list of random old (Microsoft-only) files I once attached. Just provide a browser window with a drop-down of recent files (of all types)?!

This is a horrible problem. It was so convenient to how the "attach" worked before, now it takes much more time because you have to search for the document or file, the most recent simply does not come right up. Again, it worked splendidly before, this revision has taken a very poor, and time wasting, step backwards. Is there going to be an actual fix to this?

This issue has also impacted my work flow. When multiple departments are editing and sharing documents, the "recent" files is a much more relevant pool for a drop down menu than "suggested" files. I have switched back to the old version. Staying posted for any solution to this issue.

Honestly, I am not surprised at all. As soon as I saw the new Outlook, my brain said "what's the bet that the 'new' version is missing useful features from the old version?" Sure enough, the "attach files" button is far less useful than it used to be. Hopefully they will fix it before phasing out the older version.

Thank you for your response. I agree this should be an easy fix. I'll take your lead and get back to the old Outlook. jlg
