Microsoft said service availability and email delivery were improving across a growing portion of infrastructure affected by its global outage, as Outlook, Teams and Copilot began coming back online Friday morning. The company also said it had found no indication of malicious or cyber activity.

Charles Lamanna, Microsoft's executive vice president for Copilot, Agents and Platform, said teams were reviewing what happened and how to prevent similar failures. Despite the recovery progress, Microsoft's Service Health Status page continued to list both Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Consumer Products as experiencing service degradation.
