Have upgraded to the new Outlook.
I used to be able to easily share a word doc or pdf version as an attachment onto email.
It currently still loads up the old outlook when using this feature. i want it to open up the new outlook when using the share feature on word.
Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management

I had a user today with the same issue. To fix the issue I used the toggle to switch back to Classic Outlook. Then I switched it back to New Outlook and it resolved the issue. Shared word documents are now opening in the New Outlook.
Same problem here. This has been going on for quite some time now. I do not understand what is the difficulty in updating the software to address this.
This is absolutely unacceptable that Microsoft can't solve such a simple issue.
Yes...still so very frustrating. Why can't we just delete the old version?
Is there an update yet?
Would have thought of all the advancements Microsoft is making, this would be in the easy basket, and high on the user experience list.
