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 did NOT see anything that stated PRE anywhere. what i am saying is i keep getting messages with DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS AND OPTIONS AND not one of them is what i am seeing in the registry area at in order to apply the SO CALLED fix.

    what i am saying is microsoft is a dictatorship and we are all being FORCED to comply with WHAT THEY THINK WE SHOULD HAVE AND USE. THAT WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE OUR PERSONAL TOUCH OR TASTE

    all of these postings are getting me confused. i don't know which one to do or try. beginning to feel like it's not worth the hassle microsoft is dictating to us and we really have no choice but to accept what they are putting out there. I DO NOT like the new format of outlook and calendar. it is NOT user friendly nor is it or can be personalized in any way shape or form.

    If the Options key does not exist, right click on Options and choose New > Key. Then right click on General and choose New > DWORD. Paste in the name then right click on it and choose modify and change it to 1.

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

    Or use this key - (no idea why I posted the wrong link 2x before. :( ) https://www.slipstick.com/doit/HideNewOutlookToggle.reg
