Microsoft has said it is investigating outages of some Office applications just two weeks after another IT outage caused chaos across the world.
Microsoft has confirmed that it is investigating an outage following reports of some customers being unable to access their emails and other services - less than two weeks after a major glitch sparked chaos around the world.
According to website status platform DownDetector, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, popular video game Minecraft and Xbox Live were among the platforms to have seen a surge in users reporting issues this afternoon. On its service status website, Microsoft said on Tuesday: "We are investigating reports of issues connecting to Microsoft services globally. Customers may experience timeouts connecting to Azure services.
Azure is the technology giant's cloud computing platform, with its servers used to host a wide range of platforms and applications. The US firm's alert said the problem appeared to be linked to "issues accessing a subset of Microsoft services".
