Email Attachments in the new version of outlook.

I use the new version of outlook. The drop down menu for attachments, suggests three files; none is the most recent file used/saved. I have to go into my word documents folders, find the file, and open it to attach it to an email. How can I get the drop down menu of suggested files to display my most recently worked on file?

    As many have pointed about the Office Apps, they are NOT productivity tools, and the same applies to Outlook. Like you, I have all files on One Drive, but there is no setting to select or deselect their "suggested files" or default to recent ones. The App seeks to change your behavior and does not seek your preferences or learn from them. That list of things to do is hysterical--the old Windows clunking along behind the scenes as it tries to paint an Apple beard on its apps. Honestly....

    I'm also missing the Recent Items in the Attach File feature. Please reinstate this the way it worked previously.

    The main customer retention strategy for large companies like Microsoft and Autodesk appears to be Vendor Lock-in..

    How is this still not fixed? The issue was brought up months ago! Come on Microsoft! How hard can this be to get fixed?! This is causing us to go backward in efficiency.
