    Where has the Copilot icon gone in my Outlook desktop client?

    It's the multicolored O icon in Outlook and other office apps. Email will have a summarize option - top is new outlook, Summarize button (no icon) is classic Outlook.

    Fresh Install of Windows 11, saved previous image, how to retrieve Outlook Contacts

    There would be a contacts folder - either in an IMAP data file or in a PST file. The ost would be in the same Outlook folder as the autocomplete list - \Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook A PST would likely be in the documents \ Outlook files folder, but could be anywhere. If you...

    Fresh Install of Windows 11, saved previous image, how to retrieve Outlook Contacts

    You'd lose any new entries in the autocomplete list. If they are people you regularily email, they are in the old autocomplete list anyway.

    Fresh Install of Windows 11, saved previous image, how to retrieve Outlook Contacts

    BTW - if they were in the autocomplete list, you can get that back. Find the steam_autocomplete file and copy it to the new windows. Change the file name to the one created by the new profile. Instructions here: https://www.slipstick.com/outlook/email/moving-autocomplete-account/

    Fresh Install of Windows 11, saved previous image, how to retrieve Outlook Contacts

    Do you know if contacts were in a folder named “(This computer only)" ? If yes, and you can get the Gmail ost file out - then they can be recovered using ost to PST software - you can use the trial version of ost to PST to look in the ost and see if the contacts are there. I generally recommend...

    Yahoo via POP

    It depends on your version of Outlook and license. I can't recall if cox accounts pull up the yahoo log in screen - if not, then you need the app password.

    Yahoo via POP

    Did you use an app password? POP requires an app password- IMAP does not as it brings up the yahoo login page. For regular yahoo accounts, get the app password in the account > security section. I think cox uses that page but some (like AT&T) make you log into their website to access it.

    Who made changes to a shared contact

    The modified date is when someone changed it there should be a changed by field with the account name - but if they have owner permissions it may show the mailbox name. You can get that field from All Mail fields.

    No "download pictures"

    It depends on your download settings - if you allow images for people in the address book blocked contrent will download. If not, you can download it per message - from an placeholder in the message or the info bar.

    Outlook spam filter misbehaving

    Or remove loc from it. That would apply to any word beginning with loc - locate, location etc. You could try adding it as "loc " - the space should prevent it from matching loc*. It will let some slip in, such as if the word is at the end of a sentence or subject, so no space added.

    Outlook spam filter misbehaving

    Hosts can move mail to the junk folder - but if you are using a custom domain, you would need to enable junk filtering. Gmail, yahoo etc will do it automatically but you are using HostGator, so they shouldn't do it on their own. Do you have any rules? That could do it too - rules that look for...

    Outlook spam filter misbehaving

    That would be your isp filtering it, not outlook. Outlook's filters haven't been updated in like 10 years, which is why no filtering, blocked list only is recommended. Safe list won't apply to IMAP mail because the server moves it before Outlook gets it in the inbox. The only other cause would...

    what are the downsides of running both classic and new outlook on same win 11 pc?

    None, really. I almost always have both running. IMHO, hard drive space is a bigger issue than RAM. If you use imap, classic may get new mail faster and will have older mail. This is because it syncs directly with the iIMAPserver while need Outlook pulls it into the Microsoft cloud, then sync...

    any trick to embedding images in new outlook and outlook on the web contacts?

    You are trying to add them to contacts, correct, not email? The contact form doesn't support formatting or embedded images - you would need to save to OneDrive and paste a link.

    Outlook 2010 Outlook 2010 migration question

    If you export, flags and read status will export. But... Copy the PST to the new computer - not export. That will maintain your views and categories.

    New Outlook issues with Gmail, particularly labels/folders

    >> Also, New Outlook doesn't give me feedback when mail is being retrieved on its indeterminate schedule, not even when I manually sync, and it's slow. I press F9, and then I have to twiddle my thumbs for 10 seconds while nothing appears to be happening. >> This is because new Outlook doesn't...

    What is the next workaround for macro in New Outlook 1.2025.1111.100

    At this point, there is no work around. Depending on what the macro does, you might be able to use power automate, but it can't do nearly as much as vba. Outlook will be around until 2029, with the EOL in 2035.

    Outlook 2021 outlook on iPhone

    The account on the phone (or any other device) is separate from the account on the computer - you can remove it, and it will not affect the account set up on other devices. You're just removing the account from one device. Since you use Outlook 2021, the following won't apply as Outlook 2021...
