Are you experiencing issues with your Outlook and Teams accounts? If so, you’re not the only one.

Several Microsoft users have reported issues with the services Monday morning.

Users started experiencing issues with Microsoft 365 programs at around 8 a.m., according to DownDetector.com.

At about 4 a.m., Microsoft 365 posted on X, formerly Twitter, and said they were investigating issues with its systems.

Then at 9 a.m., the company said they deployed a fix for the issue. As of 11 a.m., the fix “reached approximately 90% of the affected environments,” according to Microsoft 365’s social media post.

In an update at 12:25 p.m., Microsoft said “targeted restarts are progressing slower than anticipated for the majority of affected users.”
