It's still a mystery what's causing this. Support: OK, great. Mine was a bit sluggish this morning as well - looks like there were Teams updates. It's fine now. Let me know if anything else happens. User: OK. I've been on the phone with Wim for 3 minutes now.

Oh wait, it's 12:30 PM now. Teams and the internet browser just opened. Outlook still won't open. Why is it acting like this? 12:32 PM - Outlook finally opened after I requested it to open at 12:26 PM. That's quite a wait. Can you help me understand what's going on?

We don’t officially block Spotify or YouTube — it’s generally fine as long as it’s used in moderation. However, if it’s being abused, we can restrict access since it’s not considered a business need.
Also, just a heads-up… you messaged the IT admin during his lunch to ask about Spotify and YouTube.
