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)

    The solution in this thread is for classic Outlook - the one with the file tab. If your "Outlook" doesn't have a file tab (as seen in the center screenshot), the registry key won't work. New Outlook is replacing Windows Mail at the end of the year and it can't be blocked. Sorry.

    Note: Outlook on the web looks like new Outlook but is in a browser. They use the same scripts the main difference is new Outlook is in an app framework.
