Open in Outlook Button Inactive
I flag a lot of emails to follow up on in To Do. When I click on one of the tasks, I used to be able to click Open in Outlook on the right hand side pane, and it would open the email that was flagged.
I opened Outlook today and the Open in Outlook button is not working. I do not get the finger pointer when hovering over it, and when I click nothing happens. I tried closing / opening Outlook and rebooting.
- can confirm that this is fixed. Any links that were created while this was broken needs to be reset to work. You'll need to delete cache/all files from C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Wef to reset those links for Desktop
- Same problem, this feature is critical to my work flow. It does still work if you open up the ToDo pane from Outlook for the Web.
We are having the same issue. Also the desktop version when clicking this button crashes the program.
I called support and put in a ticket and their reply was this is not within their scope of support and we need to get an answer on the tech forums. I was like wtf. Is microsoft going to fix this and their response was to put it in a forum...

- I have the same issue. Seems to have started recently.
- Same -- older emails link is working.
