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)

    I am having this issue as well. I am using the Mail App for Outlook and Gmail. I do have Microsoft 365 subscription.

    I went to the registry and under HKEY_CURRENT_USER there is no software\microsoft\office\16.0\Outlook\Options\general ??

    Please for those of us who are NOT well versed in monkeying with the registry could you include a screen shot of what this is supposed to look like?

    This is what mine looks like:

    I posted to tenforums about this & it was magically fixed hours later, "Try the New Outlook" toggle is gone. Thought perhaps someone spotted my post & corrected it for all of us. Guess not.
