Hello MS-Team,

I Installed a new outlook for the user by clicking on "try new outlook feature", and after installing the new outlook she could not use drag and drop feature and she does not want to download all of the content because she works with a large number of invoices and reports.

The issues at hand are:

Can’t drag and drop attachments from an email to a folder.

Can’t drag and drop emails to folder to save them in the SharePoint.

Your kind help is much appreciated!

Kind Regards,

Aiyaz Khan

    Agreed. I tried the "new" outlook and it's awful. I can only imagine the Microsoft tech/engineers asking how to make it "new" and decided to move everything around, require more clicks to do normal functions, and remove certain commonly used buttons. "New" seems to translate more to "messed it all up for you, good luck trying to figure it out" (and then charging customers for this "upgrade").

    that's a poor response considering the 'Feature' has been in Outlook for years. I'd say 'New Outlook' is not ready for general release with existing features not working.
