I think Microsoft support webpages do this to the back button. I can't get back to my search page results by clicking the back button after clicking a link to a Microsoft support webpage. It always redirects me back. I either have to hold the back button down and select the search page from the drop down or double click the back button.
Why do they do that?
After getting stuck in some seriously stupid redirect loops when using Outlook, I assume Microsoft is just horribly incompetent
That's what I thought
That is exactly why I almost always open search results in a new tab.
Pretty much every microsoft site does a massive number of redirects to get to the actual page, it's ridiculous.

Is you ever have the misfortune to use any of Microsoft's Web development stuff you will find that this is how they build websites, it's really horrible 🤮
