Outlook 2016 - Insert tab disappearing.

Dinarius

Windows 10 x64


If I click Reply in the main Outlook window, the Insert tab is visible and the option to attach a file to the message I'm replying to is easy.


But, if I attach a file to my reply, the Insert tab then disappears. So, I can't attach a second file.

How can I keep (or make reappear) the Insert tab on the Outlook ribbon?


Many thanks.

Version of Outlook ?
Do you have "attach" options in Message tab?

Version is 2016.

It doesn’t happen all the time.

If I click new email, it appears in the Insert tab and stays there, regardless of how many attachments.

It only disappears when I click reply and then attach something- but, not every time.

Odd.

Thanks for the reply.

There was few glitches since last updates with deferred mail - fix was removing account from outlook and adding again
Had not come across ribbon items disappearing.
