2. Clear your browser cache
If you are using Office 365 version 16.0.11629 and Windows 10 version 1903 or later, follow these steps as Office Add-ins are now using Microsoft Edge WebView:
- Install Microsoft Edge DevTools Preview
- In Outlook, launch the Dynamics 365 app for Outlook
- Run Microsoft Edge DevTools Preview
- You should see Dynamics 365 (EXP) as a debug target
- Click on it to launch the “F12” tools
- Go to the “Console” tab
- Run: window.localStorage.clear()
- Open the app again in Outlook
If you are using early versions of Office 365 and Windows, use the following steps:
IMPORTANT
Although you may have other browsers installed on your computer, Outlook desktop always uses Internet Explorer when displaying web content such as inside Dynamics 365 App for Outlook. As mentioned in the beginning of this section, this is no longer true starting with Office 365 version 16.0.11629
After clearing your browser cache, close all Internet Explorer and Outlook desktop windows and make sure through Task Manager there are no remaining Internet Explorer processes running.
If this issue only appears in Outlook desktop and clearing the cache via Internet Options does not help, try clearing it via F12 chooser (not applicable for Windows 7):
- Open Dynamics app in Outlook desktop
- Open IEChooser.exe in %WindowsFolder%\System32\F12 (example: C:\Windows\System32\F12)
- Click Dynamics 365
- Click the Network tab and then click the Clear cache button.
After following the steps above, reopen Outlook and the Dynamics 365 App for Outlook to see if the issue is resolved.
