    Unable to download attachments from the "New Outlook" by simply dragging it to a folder.


    Hello,When I used the old outlook, it was easy and simple to download attachments to the PC by dragging the file from the email directly to the folder.However, after I switched to the New Outlook, It wont let me drag the files from the email to the folder.I have to click on the down arrow to show options such as "preview", "save to one drive" or "download".Is it just an error because the new outlook is literally new and due to errors or does this not support drag to download anymore?Thank you in advance

    :)

  2. Surface Book Touchpad - Drag & Drop not working in Outlook 2016

    Hi Rainer,



    Allow me to assist you.



    A quick question before we proceed.



    What happens when you try to drag and drop attachments in Outlook 2016?



    Let’s start Outlook in Safe Mode following steps mentioned below, then try drag and drop an attachment
    and verify the result.

    * Hold Windows key + R.

    * Copy and paste, or type the following command in the Open box, and then press
    Enter


    Outlook /safe

    Note: There is a space between Outlook and ‘/’.

    If Outlook works as expected in safe mode, disable the add-ins by following steps mentioned below and determine the problem causing add-in.

    a) Click on File menu, click Options, Add-ins, Go button besides Manage: Com-in Add.

    b) Check if there are add-ins listed, clear the checkbox.

    c) Close the Office program and restart it.

    d) Enable each add-in one at a time, restart the Outlook, and repeat the above procedure. If the issue reappears again, it will help you to determine which add-in is causing this issue.

    Hope it helps fix the drag and drop. Try the suggestion and let us know the result at your earliest convenience.
