New York: Thousands of Microsoft Outlook users experienced disruptions Wednesday night and Thursday morning, with many reporting difficulties accessing their inboxes or signing in to the platform.

Microsoft 365’s status page initially acknowledged the issue on Wednesday night, stating that an investigation was underway. While the company later began rolling out a fix, it has since reported setbacks with the initial solution, and affected systems have yet to be fully restored.

“We identified an issue with the initial fix, and we’ve corrected it," Microsoft 365 Status wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, Thursday morning. "We’re continuing to deploy the fix, and we’re closely monitoring the deployment to ensure no further issues are encountered.”

Microsoft did not immediately provide further information about what had caused the outage. The Associated Press reached out to the Redmond, Washington-based tech giant for further comment on Thursday.

As of around 10 a.m. ET, nearly 2,200 users worldwide had reported issues with Outlook, formerly also Hotmail, to outage tracker Downdetector.
