Daily Battles: Move Message Keyboard Shortcut Not Working in Outlook for Mac

Other Daily Battles Posts


One keyboard shortcut I use daily in Outlook for Mac is "⌃⇧V," which allows you to quickly move an email message to a folder of your choice. It’s a huge time-saver—until it stops working. Unfortunately, this issue occurs every time Outlook for Mac is restarted.

I reported this problem to Microsoft Tech Support because it’s 100% reproducible. Despite my efforts, the issue has remained unresolved for three years. This glitch affects both the Legacy View and the New Outlook Look.

If you’ve encountered the same frustration, don’t worry—there’s a simple fix. Here’s how to get the shortcut working again:

  1. In Outlook, click Message from the top menu bar.
  2. Select Move to expand the popup menu.
    (You only need to do this once after restarting Outlook.)

That’s it! Once you’ve done this, the "⌃⇧V" shortcut should work correctly again.



Best of luck with your own daily battles!
