    Microsoft has not published a dependable full-restoration time for the current Outlook/Microsoft 365 outage; monitor the official service-health dashboard for the next update and tenant-specific recovery details. ^1^

    Check the latest update

    • Without administrator access: Open the public Microsoft service-health page.
    • Microsoft 365 administrator: Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center, then select Health → Service health → Active issues Microsoft is working on. Open the Exchange Online or Outlook incident to see its current status, mitigation progress, next-update time, and any estimate applicable to your organization. ^2^
    • If the admin center is unavailable, continue using the public status page.

    Some recovery may occur gradually, so Outlook could begin working for certain users before the incident is marked fully resolved. Avoid reinstalling Outlook or recreating profiles while Microsoft lists an active service incident; those actions will not resolve a Microsoft-side outage.

    If Microsoft marks the incident resolved but Outlook still fails, test Outlook on the web and another device. A problem limited to one device can then be handled as a client-specific issue.

    **Harihara, Ravi

    **After nearly a day of disruptions around the world, Microsoft services are gradually returning to normal.

    It now appears that the outage was not caused by a cyberattack, but rather by an internal update that went wrong and triggered a chain reaction across the company’s servers.

    Initial attempts to fix the problem only made the situation worse, and a full return to normal is still a long way off.

    Unfortunately this is still the ongoing recovery.

    You can monitor the latest updates via https://status.cloud.microsoft/

    Here is the latest available information:

    User impact: Users may be unable to access or perform several actions in Microsoft 365 services.

    Current status: Our recovery efforts to restore service health throughout the affected environment is progressing. In parallel, we're continuing to pursue multiple workstreams to pinpoint the source of the issue and ensure the recovery of the affected environment. This issue impacts Outlook.com, OneDrive, OneNote, Microsoft To Do, Teams, and Microsoft 365 for the web although you may also see issues in other Microsoft 365 services.
