Obligitory “I have to use it for my job,” so let’s commiserate.

It’s the worst program in all of the Office Suite. MS wrote the goddamn OS and email client, but for some reason if I have two instances open for two different inboxes and try to pull one up on the taskbar, the wrong instance will pull up every single time without fail.

My runner-up complaint is how when I use the search bar, sometimes it’ll forget what I’m doing and when I hit enter it’ll open some email instead of executing the search.

Every update makes it worse, so what drives you crazy?

    Came here to say this. Ctrl+f is find in every other Microsoft product, it’s their own damn standard.

      Did you know that Microsoft changes keyboard shortcuts based on locale? In Italian they set search to Shift+F5.
      Shit drives me crazy.

          It doesn’t start with F5 either, and why shift? What’s more, it’s inconsistent, sometimes they still use ctrl+f, and every other application uses that anyway

            Most of the F keys had other meanings, so shift, as all shifted f keys were open

            Every other application

            Don’t blame Microsoft for other applications not being localised
