Outlook webpage refreshes whenever emails with attachments are opened or writing new emails

Just as the title says, this began for the first time this morning. My Outlook webpage will refresh within seconds of opening any emails with attachments or opening up a new email to write regardless of email account or browser. I've tried on Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and my main browser, Chrome, to no avail. Have not found any solutions including clearing browsing history/cache/cookies, disabling any and all extensions, and even removing extensions from my browser entirely. I've also reset my password twice, restarted my computer, and don't know what to do from here.

    Started having this issue this morning. None of my colleagues are having this issue, but me (we are using the same kind of laptops and system settings etc across the company). Browser: Google Chrome. Clearing cache, making sure everything is up to date and restarting the laptop did not help..

    Apologies, I meant to reply to Yolanda.

    Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, cleaning the cache, closing the browser, and rebooting my Mac did not resolve the issue.

    BTW If it works in private browsing for you, it means it's related to cached stuff. Clear your browser cache and it should fix the issue.

    Same issue since this morning.

    Don't bother notifying me, I can't see my emails. :P

    I have been having the same issue with the Brave browser since at least January 22. I switched to Copilot around that time. When opening the Outlook webpage in Brave private browsing, there is no issue. No issue with Safari either.
