Outlook for Windows is introducing an option to allow you to save some settings in the Microsoft 365 cloud.

When you enable Outlook to store your settings in the cloud, settings for your Microsoft 365 account will automatically roam across all your devices that use Outlook for Windows.

The settings you can store in the cloud are:

• Advanced
• Calendar
• Ease of Access
• General
• Groups
• Mail
• People
• Search
• Tasks

What if I don’t want to do this?
This feature is on by default.

To turn it off:

1. Select File > Options.
2. Under Outlook Options, select General.
3. Uncheck the box Store my Outlook settings in the cloud.
4. Select OK.

After disabling roaming options, changes you make in Outlook options will now only be applied to your local device.
