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.

    I have the same issue this morning. ANY compose window instantly refreshes Chrome, which is 100% up to date including OSX. Extreemly frustrating I cannot write any emails in my business account today. I have Office360 through GoDaddy and installed the native OSX app and it says my license doesn't include the app, I HAVE to use the web. So I'm completely stuck. Microsoft SUCKS

    Tech here with a school district,
    I have a counselor here that is having this issue. My fix for her for now is to use the application (as opposed to the web app) for now while this is being sorted out. She, for now, is the only one to have reported the issue and I've been unable to recreate the same issue with my own account. I've tried multiple browsers, firefox, vivaldi, and chrome (though most staff just use chrome).
    Adding '365' to the url doesn't seem to do anything as it just reloads to outlook.office anyway.

    I'm having the same issue. It appears to be with any messages I send whether new, response, attachment, etc. I can respond from my phone, but not from my laptop (Outlook or webmail, running on Chrome). It seems to be working ok on Edge.
