i want to remove the ad sidebar in windows outlook email

Want to remove new version of OUTLOOK, it is just terrible.  Can we revert to old version?

If you're using Chrome, try https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webmail-ad-blocker/cbhfdchmklhpcngcgjmpdbjakdggkkjp

Otherwise, try looking up add-ons for whatever browser you generally use.

What do you mean by "sidepanel"?

The following reply assumes that you are using a browser to access your outlook.com account ...

If you mean the ads on the right side of your inbox, then I suggest that you use a free Ad blocker (that works with the browser you use).

If you use Firefox or Chrome, I recommend the free add-on called Webmail Ad Blocker. Note that there are separate versions for Chrome and for Firefox ... be sure to install the version that corresponds to the browser(s) you use.

If you mean the reading/preview pane that allows you to see the contents of an email message in a pane that is next to your inbox, then you can disable the reading pane as follows:

1. From your inbox, click the "gear" icon (upper right).
2. Click "Display Settings"
3. Select "Hide Reading Pane".
4. Click OK (at top of window)

Above assumes that your account is on the new outlook mail interface (when you look at the banner above your inbox, does it say either "Outlook Mail" or "Outlook Email"? if so, your account is on the new outlook interface).

There is an easy way to remove the side bar.  Here are the steps:

1. While in Hotmail or Outlook, click on the wheel at the top right near your name.
2. Select "Options"
3. Click on "Active view settings".  This is under "Reading email" near the bottom of the page.
4. Select "Hide previews" under "Do you want to see previews?" and click "Save"
