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)

    I have this problem in Windows 10 mail. how to remove this toggle from it altogether?

    Hi fahadQL:

    Further to my 11-Dec-2024 post <above>, Peter Deegan has written an excellent article on Microsoft's plans for migration to the "new" Outlook in this week's AskWoody Newsletter that is available to the general public (the full newsletter can only be viewed by users who make a small annual donation of $6 USD or more to purchase an AskWoody Plus membership) called Stopping the migration to Outlook (new). Unfortunately, the section titled Options for Windows Mail and Calendar Users states in part ...

    "The Windows Mail, Calendar, and People apps (supplied with Windows 11) are ending on the last day of this month. That’s the only current situation where people are being forced from their existing email setup.

    Microsoft wants those folks to use Outlook (new), but you’re welcome to choose another email client. There are alternatives, in no particular order ... "

    There's also lots of useful information in Peter's article if you use the "classic" Outlook in Microsoft 365 or any perpetual edition of Microsoft Office from 2016 onward and it includes the solution Diane Poremsky posted <above> on 12-Feb-2023 in this MS Answers topic on how to edit your Windows registry to remove the "Try the new Outlook" toggle in "classic" editions of Outlook. Plans for Microsoft 365 for Business Standard, Business Premium, and Enterprise customers are also discussed in Peter's article.

    Feedback to Peter's article is being posted in the AskWoody forum at https://www.askwoody.com/forums/topic/stopping-the-migration-to-outlook-new/.
