Microsoft 365 outage knocks out Outlook, Teams, Copilot across the Americas
Microsoft confirmed a widespread Microsoft 365 disruption affecting Outlook, Teams, Copilot and SharePoint Online for users across the Americas, with Downdetector logging over 129,000 reports shortly after it began. Microsoft said an unusually large number of servers failed automated health checks and became unavailable, overloading remaining infrastructure, and the company restarted affected systems while rerouting traffic without giving a restoration timeline.
