Before I switched to new outlook, I was able to double click on attachments and they would open to their specific apps. Ex. If it was a PDF it would open with Acrobat; If it was a word doc, it would open with word. Now I have to click the download button and it default saves to my downloads folder instead of being put where I want it in the beginning. I also can't drag attachments from an email to the specific folder I want to save it to on my desktop. I have to download and then move it from my downloads folder.
I know it's probably just a new process I'll have to get used to, but hey maybe someone knows a hack!
Thank you in advance :)

I love how the representatives have abandoned this post after realising their advice is nonsense... Classic! Back to old outlook I go -.-
there is no OPEN in the preview pane
Amen. It;s useless
frankly, I can't believe that MS would release a version that is this bad
I'm switching to linux now...
