Microsoft outage disrupts email and other services worldwide
A Microsoft outage began Thursday and continued into Friday, disrupting Outlook and other products, according to WWWV and LBC. LBC reported problems affecting Teams, Copilot and some cloud services, while Newbury Today said councils and public services were among those hit. The Mail reported that Microsoft was making progress restoring services, including email access. County Times said an earlier fix was not working as expected, and the reports do not give a confirmed time for full recovery.
