Using New Outlook on Windows for professional communication and productivity
Same with me. I opened email with Outlook 365 and the issue cleared.
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.

2025-02-27T18:12:42+00:00 This is the workaround I've settled on:
- Continue to use Chrome as my main browser
- Use Firefox for email only
- Every time this issue crops up (which it continues to do, even in Firefox), apply the short-term fix of clearing Firefox's cache & cookies. This way I don't have to deal with collateral damage to the rest of my browsing landscape, which is in Chrome.

2025-02-28T19:05:04+00:00 Having the same exact issue in Chrome. What helps me (may not work for everyone) is to log out close browser window, reopen, log into Outlook inbox. This fixes the issue for a short while, maybe a day, and then it comes right back again.
Can't believe so many people are having this issue and Microsoft is silent.
