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)

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General does not work - button still shown.

    which idiot thought this was a good idea?

    please provide correct detail to suppress or remove 'try new' button - this instruction does not work.

    suggest you sack every one who had contributed to most terrible idea

    thank you

    is there a fix that works for microsoft being total muppets please?

    What is your Outlook classic version? Look in File > Office Account. If you don't have the file tab, you are not using Outlook classic. (The key only works in Outlook classic.)

    If you have Outlook classic, try using the ready to use reg key I have on my site at Use Classic Outlook, not New Outlook (slipstick.com)
