More workers than usual had reason to curse their computer screens after a Microsoft outage blocked access to widely used productivity software across multiple countries.
Users reported problems accessing Microsoft 365 services including Outlook, Teams, Microsoft Store, Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Purview and faced email delivery delays and server errors.
The outage, which the tech giant attributed to a third-party networking issue, impacted services in Australia, the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, France, Mexico, India, Japan and Brazil, according to MSN.
