I've had this problem off and on for months and is usually resolved by restarting my mac.
I have several email accounts on Outlook and on all of them I no longer have the ability to add attachments - no matter what kind/size

Sonoma 14.5
Outlook 16.87

I've tried everything and it always recurs

    FYI - reply from Microsoft support after trying to troubleshoot:

    We created a report for this, and submitted them to our engineers. I added your ticket to our list for further investigation. A fix has been rolled out the latest Beta version, and you may opt in to the Beta version to get access to the fix earlier, or you may wait for the fix to become available in the current version.

    For now, a workaround is to restart your device and it should temporarily fix the issue.

    We thank you for your understanding, and patience as we work on this matter thoroughly.

    The same goes for me. To fix this, I switched to the legacy version (in the menu bar, click Outlook > Legacy Outlook). It's annoying since I've gotten used to the newer version, but it seemed to be a quick fix while Microsoft identifies this as a widespread problem and works on a solution.

    Same here and it's becoming extremely frustrating as I have multiple files/apps open, have to close them and reopen once computer is rebooted. Not ideal. I usually save a draft of the e-mail, open outlook web and attach the file from there. It works but is annoying.
