My outlook account is not receiving emails. There is a red X on the outlook icon at the bottom of the screen.

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For business

    Hello

    There's currently a global outage affect some Microsoft services, including Outlook. It is an issue on Microsoft's end. Service status can be monitored here https://status.cloud.microsoft/ however, even this page is loading extremely slow right now.

    Or via Msft's X/Twitter page: https://x.com/MSFT365Status/status/2120938282204688468

    As forum helpers, we don't have insider information regarding when this will be restored. I am sorry.
