Mail & Calendar Apps Will Be Replaced with New Outlook for Windows December 2024
You've been drinking too much from the Microsoft well! As an ex-Microsoftie and been in this business for 40+years, I've been there.
Progress is important, but basically pushing Outlook desktop as a Web app via Webview2 disables all interop between other MS applications. This means they are removing the COM object model from Outlook so developing business productivity applications and tools that integrate Outlook with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, MS Access is now not possible with the "New Outlook".
The ripple affect will be huge ! In addition MS is not providing any tools to mitigate this. They are basically saying "tough tooties" - go re-write your COM based applications, tools and add-ins to the web - a very very expensive solution if at all possible.
(Shaking my head) 😞
