Check the latest restoration update
For a work or school account, ask a Microsoft 365 administrator to:
- Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center.
- Go to Health > Service health.
- Under Active issues Microsoft is working on, open the relevant Outlook/Exchange Online or Copilot incident.
- Review Status, User impact, Last updated, and All updates for the tenant-specific progress and any estimated recovery time.
- Select Manage notifications for this issue to receive updates.
The dashboard is available to administrators with suitable roles, including Service Support admin and Helpdesk admin. If no matching incident appears, the administrator can select Report an issue.^2^
For a personal Microsoft account, continue monitoring Microsoft’s public service-status page. Avoid reinstalling or resetting Outlook while an active service incident is shown; service-side recovery normally requires no device changes.
