Outlook.com now allows its use as the default client for sending and receiving emails

Microsoft continues to improve Outlook.com and the web app now supports its use as a tool with which to access emails by default by using it as our default email client.

With this enhancement, users who already have this option will be able to use Outlook.com to default application for sending and receiving emails, a change that if not satisfactory, we can always revert with the system options.

Outlook.com as the default client

Outlook.com is offering this possibility through a banner that appears at the top of the screen. In order to take advantage of this improvement, it is necessary to have a compatible browser, for example Chrome in its latest versions or Edge.

When entering Outlook in the web version, a warning with the following text appears at the top of the screen: “The browser supports setting Outlook.com as the default email address manager”.

If we choose to activate this function, Outlook.com will become the default application to send emails. In case you want to revert the changes, you must change the default application in the “Settings”, both in Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Is about a function that is being progressively deployed so it may still take a few days to see it reflected in the account.
