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

Lol.... you are absolutely correct. Why is this new outlook out there when it's not finished. If you look at a prior listing I posted someone from MS says this will be implemented in December. Hopefully this year

Dear Mjel62,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community.

I understand that you have a concern with Pinning/locking the favorites folder to the top of the folder bar in the New Outlook. According to your description, I really understand that you are referring to difference in the current feature in New Outlook preview and the classic outlook. Please note that currently this feature doesn't seem feasible in the new Outlook for Windows as. I do apologize not able to meet your requirements at the moment. However, your concern is very meaningful and reasonable. At this point, since New Outlook is still under development, I will surely raise your concern to our Product Development Team and hopefully this can be included in the future updates. Also, we sincerely recommend you send your concern as an idea on our in-app New Outlook feedback site. To provide feedback, go to Help> Feedback. You can refer to Contact support and provide feedback within the new Outlook for Windows - Microsoft Support. Our Product Development Team are committed to enhancing the customer experience by continually examining suggestions to include in the design and development of future product upgrades based on your suggestions. Hopefully your suggestion will help many users in the future.

 

Thank you for your precious time and understanding. For other questions, feel free to add your post in the Microsoft Community team.

 

Stay safe and healthy. Have a good day!

Sincerely,

What a garbage response. Are you 12 years old or just dumb? YOU Have no idea how frustrating this is for WORKING folks. I am sure they have children doing the upgrades for this. I love this part the most - "At this point, since New Outlook is still under development" Then why the frik are we paying for it???? WHY are we even using it in business??? Can you imagine driving a car that is as useless as this developmental software???? We would crash every 2 minuets!!!! Utter third world garbage!!!!!!!!

Is there any timeline when this is going to be fixed? I hate this new Outlook with a passion for multiple reasons. Having to scroll all the way up to get to my favorites is time consuming and just stupid. Why update a system with something that is subpar?

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

I need to add my voice to this, The favorites option is almost meaningless when you have to scroll back to it every time.

Please can there be a timeline for this essential fix?

KatherineAtWork This is not almost meaningless, IT IS MEANINGLESS. What's the reason to have a favorite bar if you can't access it quickly.

There is light at the end of the tunnel. I received notice that Microsoft has placed this issue on their long list of feedback from users and it is scheduled to be fixed this December 2024.
