Using New Outlook on Windows for professional communication and productivity
This is BS!!!!! It does NOT work. WHY change something that is already working?
How do I enable copy and paste in the new outlook? I am not able to directly copy any documents from Explorer and then go to the email that I am working on to paste onto the emial.

How do I enable copy and paste in the new outlook?
I am not able to directly copy any documents from Explorer and then go to the email that I am working on to paste onto the emial. Before with the Old Outlook I was able to to do this easily but the New Outlook requires me to go to the "paper clip" Icon above then search thru the Explorer to find the file then the specific documents(which couple be hundred documents); this process takes sometime 5 miniuets to find the exact document to copy and paste. I need to do it the Old Outlook ways or "Classic" format so that I can do just the cut and paste as mentioned earlier of this email. Pleas advise ASAP thanks.

I am not convinced yet that they read these, or they are too embarrassed that they have ruined a good product, Old Outlook, and do not know how to fix the New Outlook. Just really frustrated with a company you cannot talk to and who never seems to respond.

Literally every solution is explained by a people who struggle with the English language. In the mid 90s Outlook was far superior to what is has devolved into. The only reason for this I can think of is to sell you subscriptions.
