A customer could choose the same actions from wherever they are viewing the message. That would have been useful for consistency. Quick Action has no button on the reading pane or fully open message. The Quick Action setup is done there but you can’t make it happen for the current message. Quick Action doesn’t appear on the right-click menu as something to do. Selecting multiple messages then clicking one of the Quick Action icons will act on that for all the selected items. Maybe you’ve forgotten your Quick Action setting or that you created it at all! The tooltip only shows one of the two steps (Archive in this case) with no ‘Quick Action’ text to explain how the icon got there. There’s a tooltip if you hover over the icon but it’s not very helpful. The only place the Quick Action appears is a tiny icon on the message list, above the date, between the Flag and Delete icons. In testing it sometimes toggles the Read status but other times forces messages to ‘Unread’. Mark as Read/Unread – a confusing label that suggest the read status is toggled.At the moment it marks the message as unread but leaves the Flag untouched. Presumably it’s supposed to clear any Flags on the message. Flag / Clear Flag – this didn’t work in our testing on multiple machines.Move – moves to an Outlook folder that you have to choose each time.Delete – moves to Deleted Items folder.None – a ‘no operation’ for when you only need one action.There’s a limited set of Quick Action commands available. Under that link, you can setup the Quick Action steps (maximum two). Right-click on any message to see ‘Set Quick Actions …’

Quick Actions is in Outlook for Windows now ( version 1905 build 11629.20196). We started getting reader complaints and questions about Quick Actions before we’d had a chance to try it ourselves! Quick Actions did manage something rare for Office Watch. Quick Actions only leaves customers wanting more. Alas, it’s not been properly developed or integrated properly into Outlook. A new feature in Outlook 365 for Windows is ‘Quick Actions’ which we’ll show you, why the name is confusing and the features limitations.įrom a very quick look (no pun intended) Quick Actions seems like a good idea.
