Enable undo send in Outlook for Windows 11

Outlook contains useful features that can help you make working with Outlook a little more pleasant. For example, Outlook has a feature called “Undo send".

The function "Undo Send” helps to cancel sending a message if you change your mind or want to quickly make changes.

This feature must be enabled via the Outlook settings. After you have enabled the “Undo Send” function, you can set that you have a maximum of 10 seconds to cancel a sent e-mail message. After 10 seconds have passed after sending an email message via Outlook, the email is actually sent. This is how it works.

    1. Hello, if you want to use Outlook (new), you can try resetting it to default settings. Maybe this will solve the problem.

      Right click on the Start button > run > type:

      olk.exe --clearLocalState

      Restart Outlook (new).

      Success!
