Solved Undoing Bold font in hotmail!

[techlearner]

Recently I have been unable to undo bold font in hotmail, i.e. reverse it! It doesn't respond to either the B symbol or the 'undo' or Ctrl + B. It seems to be a problem mostly when I paste a previous message into a new window, i.e. text that has been bolded which I am trying to undo. A google search yielded nothing helpful pertaining to this.

What else can I try?

Hi,
Try using plain text as default at gear symbol and options
Outlook.com has gotten pretty busy lately for my taste so I hardly use it anymore.

That's too much of a compromise for me! I like to be more interesting than that!

Hi,
Yeah that is to reset the editor lol you don't have to do it permanitly :sarc:
Otherwise select all of the text and click on the bold button.
Copy and paste is not all that imaginary

Hi,
Too easy see everything doesn't have to be complicated all one needs is a willing participant
Cheers.
P.S.
Try pasting into notepad first then copy and paste into outlook.com that will strip all crazy formatting out of the content so you can play with the content all you want to in the email editor as you usually would.
