I need to know how to add columns to my Outlook Folders. Those settings did not migrate to the new Outlook. There is no option to change columns with the Field Chooser. Very frustrating. Please help!!

    Hi Cathy,

    Great name you have there. And how bad is this. Just upgraded or should I say downgraded today. Wish I bloody hadn't!

    And FFS Microsoft at least give us the bloody option. Not force it on us with no alternative. Using a feature for over a decade then removing it because some 20+ uni student with 4 majors and 2 langues but not 1 bit of real world experience had some epiphany drinking his chai latte in his Prius. Taking more choice away. Pathetic. If i wasn't so wrapped up in your infastructure Id be out of it in flash. So glad I didnt buy another Surface Pro for 3k

    Microsoft literally don't care anymore what the users want.

    They've moved from human-centred-design to Microsoft-centre-design.

    Well guess what, my next laptop is going to be a Mac and I have hated Mac's all my life, but I am done. This is ****.

    I know Microsoft is bad, but surely you can't seriously be considering moving to a Mac? Apple is Microsoft's evil twin.

    I believe this thread/forum is here merely to let people vent. The thread is over a year old and I haven't seen any response from MS (but I'm happy to be corrected).

    I would be interested to know what criteria and measure the Product Owner is using to consider the product as 'user accepted'?

    Clearly, they have de-valued this feature without proper investigation.
