Outlook's still down.

No reason to share a link for those that are experiencing this issue. Outlook's been down all day and missed most of my Teams meeting earlier (my full time job had one today and I didn't have a link) but Teams itself still at the time worked and I was able to join the meeting (didn't even thing to try Teams when I didn't have email access; lol). Not sure if this is a hack or actually just m$ being m$ as usually. lol

Anyway, just had to release some spiel; sorry about the gripe.

Apparently Microsoft isn't saying. Got a phone call from my Support Coordinator today. She must use outlook as said her email has gone down because of Microsoft

A massive global Microsoft outage has left millions of users,
businesses, schools, and public services offline across more than 70 countries.
Core platforms including Microsoft Outlook, Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365, OneDrive,
and Copilot AI all experienced severe disruptions,
sparking widespread confusion and speculation over whether the crash was a cyberattack or a catastrophic server failure.

The speculation is just that, Wallace and I thought the same, but it appears Microsoft pushed a patch that caused it. Who needs cyberterrorist when you have m$. lololol

Words below taken from a yahoo article from 2 hours ago.

"Millions of users worldwide were left unable to send or receive emails or access workplace tools following a massive Microsoft outage that began Thursday afternoon. At the peak of the disruption, nearly 130,000 users reported issues with Outlook alone, alongside widespread problems across Microsoft 365, Teams, and Copilot AI. Microsoft confirmed the outage was not caused by a cyberattack, attributing the crash to a cluster of overloaded servers failing automated health checks during updates and load balancing. FOX 5 NY's Jessica Formoso has the latest."

Forgot to add that my Outlook email works again. Not sure if I missed any emails that might have came in during the down time, though. Oh well.

Me i wouldn't trust outlook if my life depended on it. Not after someone hacked my wacmaster account. ms support still hasn't gotten me back my email account even though i have tried several times. They did say something looked strange, and suspicious with my account but didn't offer any answers. That happened a year and a half ago. They still have not rectified it. Terrible customer support.
