Jul 19, 2017 - I am still disappointed in MS's attempt at Outlook for the Mac. Again, I don't think this is a Box issue. But please let me know if it turns out I'm. So the drag-and-drop functionality in Microsoft Outlook flat-out stopped working for me this morning, presumably because it's Monday. I’ve never had this problem before, so I didn’t know how to fix it. Outlook 2016 for mac welcome to outlook. Fortunately, a quick on “drag-and-drop not working in Outlook” turned up from a site called Saniac: Just hit the escape key. (Saniac warned that you may have to do it more than once, but a single try worked fine for me.) So what is Saniac? Proprietor Brad Carpenter writes on his “about” page: If you’ve arrived at this cobweb-riddled corner of the interwebs then, sadly, you’re probably a lot like me. I’ve spent a little more than 14 years working in IT providing support to end-users; however, the scope of that work has varied dramatically. I know enough that I do well at my job and others tend to look to me for guidance. That said, I spend a lot of time online looking for answers to the many unexpected issues that pop up each day. So, Saniac is essentially my personal knowledgebase. It’s a place for me to document the information that I’ve found to be useful, particularly unusual and tough-to-find solutions. I’m working under the assumption that if I’m having trouble then others probably are as well. I was, briefly. “That (drag-and-drop) article seems to be a perennial favorite,” Carpenter tells me by email. “I'm glad it helped you fix the problem.” [ ] I’m sure I speak for many when I say, thank-you, Brad.

I recently ran into an issue where Outlook 2016 on Windows 10 was giving me one of these errors whenever I would try to click on a link: “This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator” or “Your organization’s policies are preventing us from completing this action for you. For more info, please contact your help desk”. While there are security policies in place, the ability to click on a hyperlink is not included in them, so the issue had to be from something else. In my case, my default browser was set to Firefox (recently upgraded from the x86 to the x64 version, which might have been when the problem started). After some digging, I found the steps needed to resolve this issue.
