How to switch back to old "Hotmail" interface layout? (Aug 2016)

Microsoft has been advertising the change for well over a year and had sent at least two emails to every single user

They are migrating all users and once an account has been migrated there is no going back.  The migration can take 2-4 days after which time your data should return.  If it does not Unless you made the back up that Microsoft recommended when you signed up for the email address, the data is gone because, like you, the online servers are not backed up

The question that everyone should be asking is WHY some of us were converted to outlook without our consent/knowledge.  How do you decide who stays in the old interface and who goes to the new interface?

I was forced to use the new interface like everyone else here.  I was just on it for 5 mins and already found numerous issues.  One major issue is that I am having trouble creating rules.  It is very sluggish in responding and many times it has issues loading the options.  I am missing some folders and one of my other email address that I had previous set to forward emails from.

VERY UPSET...I have been swapped over to the new outlook without any notice and some of my folders are missing on the left hand side, obviously i don't know what is missing until I go to look for something, this is dreadful, the emails i have put in the folders that are missing i can of course retrieve emails that i am looking for by searching in my inbox all over again but this is extremely annoying . I am very upset indeed.  I liked the old format and everything had a place, now some of my folders are missing I am unhappy.  please don't tell me to use IE because I find that system useless compared to Google Chrome and my computer is all set up and everything has its place in google Chrome.  WHAT A LOAD MESS, don't have the time for this when i have to work as well....

You know that they won't change it.

Microsoft no longer cares.

They have changed because Bill Gates is gone.

Microsoft does what they want and no longer cares what the people say. Alot of people are unhappy with the changes. I read more and more everyday, but they won't change it. They only do what they want.
