How many years using Outlook Desktop? And I never noticed conditional formatting! Great (and funny!) video.
0:00 – Hello Kevin. π
5:46 – 416th like from me. π Cheers.
Thank you Kevin
Hilarious! We do need a tour of the Kevin Cookie Company at some point. Great tips though. Outlook is such a powerful app with decades of useful features for the work environment.
Can a rule be created for every meeting a new alert with separate sound? Great inatructiona-γView – settings 2. Select mssg rules – display new alert window, selective sound,
Loved this video Kevin! β€ Had a good laugh, you have keen sense of humor! Keep it up! ππ
The alert sound is really cool!π

Thanks, Boss! πβ€οΈ
Thanks Kevin the amazing help
My windows 11 is not showing outlook app…and when I searched it in Ms store…it doesn't have any download or Install optionπ, Help kevin!
you have a great sense of humour. This makes the videos interesting and fun to watch π
This is an outstanding rule for me to use for the tickets and requests that appear in my outlook. Amazing work, Kevin. Windows actually has some really nice theme sounds and alerts!
I like the conditional formatting…
However, unless I missed it… The alert & sound work only on 1 machine. If you have multiple machines the rule wont work on multiple machines
wait – have you actually REALLY started up the Kevin Cookie Company? If you have not what are u waiting for?!!!
Kevin, Thank you so much for the smart content as always.
Please create a video on how to automate video creation. For example by importing spreadsheets.
Thanks again
Kevin! I enjoy your videos since you used to have 100+ subscribers! I direct my students to see your videos when they need to be introduced to any MS product. Now, could you show the web-based outlook way of highlighting an email from the boss? Thank you.
Hi Kevin I have had so much Help from your videos so can you please tell us how to fix Latency issues with recording (not game lag just recorder being wonky and glitching/stuttering) i really need help I thought upgrading my RAM would fix it but it uses More CPU now
That's awesome Kevin.
Great video however on iPhone using Outlook it would be so much better to be able to switch notifications to just get a different notification from your favourite people. This way turns off notifications from the rest of your inbox which isnβt very practical.
Still love your channel Kevin!
2-day.. downvoted
That sound will send my blood pressure up.
Can you please make a video on how to edit using VSDC free editor? Thanks!
I used to use the outlook android app until it started giving problems with my ISPs email address, apparently this issue started in October last year and as yet no fix. Shame too as I liked the Outlook app.
Hello Kevin. I would like to thank you for your wonderful knowledgeable videos. I would like to know about one issue: The issue is we see no. of presenter more than one generally in our organization teams channels, but if we want to see the details, we can not see any name there, only the organizer is seen. (I mean the no. is more than one and the name is just one. Could you please help me to solve this issue.

Thank you. I have incorporated this in my Outlook and it is saving a great deal of time.
Thank you for your great videos. Is there a way to open Outlook 2016 messages in the Outlook App with one click?
Setting notifications to favorite people only still gives me push notifications for people not on my favorites list. Any advise?
Kevin, I'm stuck please..I can't find a single video explaining how to make all replies on a message appear in the same message like we used to. Whenever I receive several replies to a message I sent,each comes in a separate message and that doesn't help relating at all.
Patty is not a nice person
Hi.
I've seen your Youtube videos and they are very very helpful! Thank you for your contents!
I've watched the tutorials you've posted regarding Microsoft Outlook. And, I would like to humbly ask for your assistance about my concern.
My supervisor is using Microsoft Outlook as his primary email portal and he wants me to access his Outlook emails but with limited access only or few emails only. Is there a feature in Microsoft Outlook that can adhere to this matter or best way to set me up with this kind of setting?
Your help/response on this matter would greatly be appreciated. Thank you in advance!! π
Hi Kevin, I follow your video exactly as you portray it, but when I close Advanced view settings the changes I made disappear, any idea what I'm doing wrong?
yeah Patty is a pain in the 4ss
Can I do this with multiple emails?
