Is there a way to pin/lock the Favorites to the top of the folder bar?

I have hundreds of email folders and when I scroll down, the pinned Favorites scrolls up and is not visible. This causes me to have to scroll all the way back up to get to my inbox. Previously it stayed in place & I could click the inbox. Thank you

    HI MF

    You see that's the issue.

    Classic outlook does not exist on new machines.

    I converted to apple and there is NO option for classic outlook only Legacy outlook.

    If you can suggest ways that I can download or upload Classic outlook then I will happily do this.

    To date I haven't been able to find a way to do this.

    Classic outlook is a program whereas the new outlook, including legacy, is an app.

    MS dont want you storing outlook on your computer anymore because they can't turn it off if you dont pay.

    The app is a security feature written for kids by kids. It is massively frustrating.

    For now, if you want this feature, you'll have to use the option for Classic Outlook. The Favorites/lock section is still there.

    Later,

    MF

    It's absurd that this was identified more than a year ago, and the issue hasn't been resolved.

    I was told recently that we will have to make the switch to New Outlook in the next few weeks.

    I'm still using the full desktop application until online features are fixed as desktop Outlook has full functionality where the web version falls short. I'd recommend turning the web version off and switching back to the main desktop application where you can drag & drop. Saving files with the online version is still very much possible, it's just more clicks than desired. Take Care.

    Actually they are listening and do care.

    Microsoft reponded several months ago and let us all know the fix will be a part of their update this December. I sent a response back to let everyone know, but it's probably buried by now. Take Care.
