Add my Microsoft 365 email address to Outlook 2013 (Windows)

After you've set up your Microsoft 365 email address, you can add it to Outlook 2013 for Windows.

We recommend setting up your Outlook automatically using the Outlook Setup Assistant. Alternatively, if you have a Business Professional or Premium Security plan, you can download the most recent version of Outlook.

Note: Make sure you're using the most recent version of Outlook. Microsoft ended support for Outlook 2013 (versions prior to 15.0.4971.1000). Learn more.
