New outlook feels sluggish, after a few minutes and then after a minute or two a message popup "Restart recommended We detected that your session has unusually high memory". Restart and it works again for a few minutes. feels like a bug or memoryleak. After updates applied today. (Fully updates system)

Running classic outlook solves the problem, but just a heads up. If no one has a fix :)

    I've been getting this message all morning, after multiple application restarts and a reboot. According to task manager, Outlook (olk.exe) is only using 8MB of memory. The real memory hog culprit is Edge Webview2...
