Microsoft says all its business and consumer services have recovered from the global outage that disrupted Microsoft 365 applications, including Outlook and Teams, since Thursday.
The company said on Saturday it had completed work to address the underlying cause and restored service to the remaining affected customers and regions. A day earlier, Microsoft had described recovery of its business services as ongoing.
The disruption also affected users in the Netherlands, where several local councils and universities were digitally difficult to reach, according to Nieuws.nl. Microsoft apologised on Friday for the outage, which it said was caused by a technical problem unrelated to cyberattacks or artificial intelligence.
