Tens of thousands of Microsoft Outlook users encountered issues with the email service on Saturday afternoon. Microsoft 365, the platform that oversees services like Outlook, Excel, and PowerPoint, acknowledged the problem and took action by identifying a potential cause of impact. By 5:01 p.m. ET, they had reverted the suspected code to alleviate the impact.
While the outage reports primarily focused on Outlook, Microsoft clarified that the issue was affecting various Microsoft 365 services. The company assured users that they were actively monitoring the systems for recovery. Despite requests for comment, Microsoft did not provide any additional information.
