Microsoft restores some services as global outage continues

Microsoft has partially restored some services affected by a widespread outage, but problems continue around the world, Yle reported Friday.

The company said services had begun recovering in areas where it had made changes. However, some repair work has not resolved the problems.

More than 100,000 users reported difficulty accessing Outlook on Thursday evening Finnish time, according to outage-tracking website Downdetector. Reports have since fallen, but users continue to report problems worldwide.

Issues have also affected Teams and Microsoft’s Copilot AI assistant.
