Actually, they have 2 Outlooks, and neither of them are working.
I believe there are three products called Outlook, actually
Wait, what's the third?
There is what used to be the "Mail App" that was introduced with Win10. That was renamed to Outlook. A new Outlook was then installed automatically that was called Outlook (new). At some point, Outlook was renamed "Outlook (classic) and Outlook (new) was renamed "Outlook". On top of that there is the Outlook that is part of the MS Office suite, if you have that installed.
I'm not entirely sure how accurate my memory of this desaster is, though. I don't use Windows on my personal machines, I noticed this on a friend's computer I was fixing.
