Microsoft Outage Leaves Millions Without Access To Outlook Email And Other Tools
Microsoft is reporting a major global outage that has shutdown their Outlook, Teams and AI Copilot services, causing global disruptions and communication failures.
The tech giant said on Thursday that the disruptions to its Microsoft 365 products were caused by an unexpectedly high load on its infrastructure, but attempts to solve the issue have been unsuccessful.
Microsoft took to X to explain the situation, saying “We've monitored the status of the changes applied to improve serviceability and confirmed they're not taking as expected.”
So far, more than 70 countries have reported problems with Microsoft products, with the company saying that users may gradually gain access to their Outlook and other products as the servers’ capacity is restored.
