How to get rid of a new tab on Outlook upper tool bar stating: Try the new Outlook. It recently popped up & replaced my "delete" tab, which is now inside the scroll down menu.

Edited to add: Note that the registry key applies only to classic Outlook desktop software (2016, 2019, 2021, Outlook in Microsoft Office 365 software). It does not work for Windows Mail.

Hello Dennis

You're talking about the button in my screenshot? It's not a toolbar but you can hide it using a registry key -

Image

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General
DWORD: HideNewOutlookToggle
Value: 1

Start typing regedit on the start menu and when the Registry Editor comes up, open it.

Browse to the path, right click on the right side and choose New > DWORD. Paste HideNewOutlookToggle, press enter then right click on it and choose modified and choose modify. change 0 to 1. \

Restart Outlook.

Edited to add: I have a ready-to-use registry key in my article at Use Classic Outlook, not New Outlook (slipstick.com)

    Another example of greed, the new free version will have ads unless you pay, how is this an improvement for the user? Why not give user a choice? the answer is Microsoft knows not many would choose the new version. Pure greed. Reason why rent and housing is unaffordable for many. GREED

    This didn't work. I still have it in my g-mail account....Microsoft Home & Student 2019

    Hi Brad Milnes1:

    Could you post a screenshot of what you're seeing in your Gmail account?

    I use the MS Outlook 2019 program that came with my MS Office Home and Business 2019 C2R suite as the email client on my Win 10 machine. I'm currently on Version 2403 / Build 17425.20176 (rel. 09-Apr-2024) and have not applied any of the workarounds suggested in this topic (e.g., like Diane Poremsky's 12-Feb-2023 HideNewOutlookToggle registry edit posted <here> on page 1 of this topic) and I don't recall seeing that annoying "Try the new Outlook" toggle switch in MS Outlook 2019 for a few months now.

    Here's an old MS Outlook 2019 image I captured back in Oct 2023 when I was using Version 2309 / Build 16827.20130 (rel. 28-Sep-2023):

    Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.4291 * Firefox v125.0.2 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.24030.9-1.1.24030.4 * Malwarebytes Premium v5.1.3.110-1.0.1219 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 * Microsoft Office Home and Business 2019 C2R Version 2403 / Build 17425.20176
