Work has rolled everyone over to Windows 11 and I have to agree with many of the other replies. It's the most half baked OS they've released in a really long time. Really idiotic stuff happens... Like the snapshot and calculator tools just randomly refusing to start. And Outlook randomly refuses to recognize certain key inputs for a few minutes at a time (while other running apps continue to work just fine). Just really annoying.

    Don't think it's just an Outlook thing, same thing happened to me in the file explorer. Weird thing is I opened another explorer window and that worked fine, while at the same time the other window was still unresponsive.

    Just windows 11 failing at windows sometimes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Outlook classic is one of the better examples of a legacy app with tons of integration capabilities that should have been overhauled years ago. The way plugins work is probably related to your issues.

    The modern Outlook app is significantly more reliable but has its own quirks that are pretty painful when coming from classic.
