REDMOND, Wash. ~ Microsoft Outlook experienced a widespread outage Thursday, leaving thousands of users unable to access their inboxes, send emails or receive messages. The disruption also affected other Microsoft services, including Teams, Copilot and Microsoft 365, with outage reports reaching nearly 130,000 users.
Microsoft said the problems were linked to server issues and increased pressure on parts of its infrastructure, causing disruptions across multiple regions. Although the company has made progress restoring services, some users continued experiencing problems Friday morning as technicians worked to return service to normal.
