Outlook signature is not displayed – Solution 2023

Signatures in Outlook are small sections of text that are automatically appended to the end of emails you send through Outlook. You can use signatures to showcase your name, contact information, company or position. You can also include a logo, quote or other visual elements in your signature. Signatures are a useful way to present your identity and contact information in every email you send, without having to manually enter that information each time. You can also create multiple signatures and use them for different purposes, such as for business and personal emails or for emails to different groups of recipients. In this tutorial, we’ll look at how to create and use signatures in Outlook.

Signature is not displayed in Outlook – solution

If your signature is not showing up in Outlook, there are a few possible causes and solutions you can try:

Make sure you have set up the signature correctly. Go to „File“ > „Options“ > „Mail“ > „Signatures“ and check if the signature has been added and configured correctly.

Verify that the signature is enabled for the desired email action. Go to File > Options > Email > Signatures and make sure that the desired signature is selected for New Messages and Reply/Forward.

Signature verification

Verify that the signature is present in the email itself. It could be that the signature was manually removed from the email. You can add the signature manually by clicking on the „Signature“ drop-down menu in the message toolbar and selecting the desired signature.

Check if there are any problems with your Outlook account. It could be that there are problems with your Outlook account that prevent the signature from displaying. If this is the case, try logging out of your account and logging in again to see if the problem is fixed.

Restart Outlook

Try restarting Outlook. There may be a temporary problem with Outlook that can be fixed by restarting the application. Close Outlook and open it again to see if the signature is now displayed.

If none of these solutions fixes the problem, it is recommended that you contact Microsoft Technical Support for further assistance.
