The outage started at about 9:00 am Moscow time today, and Microsoft has already confirmed that it has affected the company’s email worldwide. Currently, Outlook users cannot access their emails, and Outlook.com simply won’t load.

” We are collecting additional data about the affected infrastructure, which will help in the investigation and determine the cause of the failure, ” – stated in a message from Microsoft support. It looks like the outage was caused by a recent change that Microsoft made. ” We are looking at recent changes to our service to determine the cause of the impact,” said Microsoft 365 Status on Twitter.

This is the second major outage in Microsoft services in less than a week. On Monday, users of Microsoft Outlook, Office 365, Teams, and other services faced problems in their work. Unlike other companies such as Cloudflare, Microsoft does not fully disclose the root cause of the crashes, so we are unlikely to ever know why Microsoft Outlook was experiencing problems during the week.
