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

    It's 11/21/24 and still no intermediate fix? This new outlook is causing carpel tunnel. To open attachments is horrible or to save. Before I was able to drag and drop and not I can't. Also, I want to be able to open files in the native program and not in an outlook window. I have more flexibility/options when opened in the native program vs. outlook

    Thanks mate. I had the same idea but it is kind of a clunky workaround. Because this issue has been reported to Microsoft since at least 2020 and Microsoft is ignoring his customers (as always) this will never get fixed and, yes, I NEVER will switch do the "Neu Outlook" (that honestly is a crappy webapp on desktop).

    SOLUTION: I open two copies of Outlook. One I use to scroll through (outlook1) and the other I leave as is (outlook2). When I need to move an email from outlook1 to one of my favorites, I drag it from outlook1 to outlook2. Because I don't read my messages in outlook2 all of my favorites sit at the top of outlook2. (Please note I am using Outlook2024 desktop App.)

    Regarding the age of this post we can stop waiting for this feature as the Microsoft Team seems not to work with Outlook or the new Outlook in a serious way. If they would the favorites would be fixed on top already for a long time. This makes it completely nonsense to use the New Outlook.
    When I read it is "not feasable" I suggest to learn about CSS and fixed containers.

    Additionaly I am no friend of web apps on the desktop at all.
