Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
I am using the web browser not the app. My colleague reported she is not experiencing this with the app.
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
For several months now, when I click on links in emails from LinkedIn or Indeed, Outlook (new) opens two (2) tabs for the same link. Every time.
It does not do this if I switch back to the (Old) Outlook.
It does not do this if I open the same email/links in my Outlook 365 desktop application.
Since Microsofte embedded "safelinks" scanning, the Outlook (New) app has been a royal pain with links in emails, hiding links from view, and with this additional irritation, it seems that the development team have lost the plot.
My "Default" browser has no bearing on the result., it does it in Chrome or Firefox when set to default.
Switch to the old version of Outlook App, the issue goes away.
Forward an email to my priamary Outlook365 mailboxes... the issue is non existent...
By testing 3 versions of Outook with 3 web browsers, I only get the issue with the New Outlook App,... therefore I can only conclude that Microsoft have fudged this (New Outlook) version up even more.
*Note that for me it is only email links from LinkedIn and Indeed job alert emails and notifications, I have yet to find another platforms emails that are affected.
Are you getting any issues with these?
Lmk here if you find any other major platform emails too,
Ta!

I am using the Outlook app in Windows 11. New version.
Sorry people.
The idiots working at Microsoft close my ticket after weeks of talking to them.
NO FIX, NO REASON, NO RESULT, JUST A CLOSED TICKET.,
Utter morons.
Sorry to hear this is now affecting others, it was rare when I reported it, now it seems they have pushed the **** error into live production and in one day I get 15 notifications about it....
No longer my issue, Microsoft closed the ticked and you're as stuffed as I was.
This was closed?
its not fixed. i still have issue with it on Edge
The ticket was closed because support is aware of the issue and "engineering" is working on it. They don't need 1000 tickets open for the same problem. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next 24-48 hours.
