>Microsoft’s Outlook for Windows has a notification problem that is hard to ignore. Clicking a Windows 11 notification for a new email is supposed to take you straight to that message. Instead, the new Outlook makes you wait, and the numbers are embarrassing.
Windows 11 ships with two versions of Outlook. There is Outlook Classic, the long-running Win32 desktop app built for power users, and there is the new Outlook, which Microsoft is pushing as the future of email on Windows. The newer one is built on WebView2 and is, in essence, a browser window that loads Outlook.com. If you have ever used both side by side, you already know which one feels faster and which one does not.
