Outlook Web App - Home key not working as expected

Question

When drafting an email in the Outlook Web App, I used to be able to push the Home key on my keyboard to position the cursor to the beginning of the line. This is no longer working. Nothing happens when I push the Home button. The End key moves the cursor to the end of the line.

Interestingly, if I open the "My Day" pane to show the calendar on the right side of the screen, my Home key works as expected.

I am using a recent build of Google Chrome (Version 103.0.5060.134) on RHEL 8.6.

Answer 1

Same problem for me. Started couple of months ago. Before that, I was have been using Outlook web for ~3 years without any issues.
I have the very latest version of Chrome aka 105.0.5195.127 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Interestingly, END-button still works normally (cursor going to end of line), but HOME does nothing.

Please fix, super annoying and slowing my work!

Answer 2

Same problem for at least a few weeks. Ctrl+home also works but "home" alone does nothing. Chrome 105.0.5195.125 on Ubuntu.

Answer 3

Can only agree, something Outlook web app is blocking Home key from working in message compose.

Answer 4

Same problem here. I only noticed it a couple of days ago. As other users have said - bizarrely, if you display the "My Day" pane, the Home button works as normal. Go figure...

Answer 5

Same here.
