Using Classic Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
Why makes things complicated. Answering this question does not need a 'business'enviroment
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Please advise where I can find File and other toolbars such as Insert, Reference, etc in Outlook?. Currently I'm only seeing Home, View and Help toolbars.
Thank you,
Tina

Microsoft is doing everything they can to lose customers to Google. I have a gmail account, but I like to use the original NOT on-line outlook email client. As soon as Microsoft switches to the new, function-disabled Outlook, I'm 99 44/100% sure I'm going to ditch my Office 365 subscription, a Microsoft revenue stream, to freeware, and as well ditch Edge for Firefox Mozilla. I really ought to switch to Linux while I'm at it. Get rid of the garbage.
What a real piece of garebage this new outlook. about 5 extra clicks for everything you want to do. Pure status quo **** garbage.
There is no "about" option to identify the app, It is "New Outlook".
MS has nothing to say about all the Outlook windows, each with one memo, clogging my alt-tab display.
Advice from other sources says there is a "Close all messages" under View. Not in my case.
When I click the icon the display changes for a moment and then resumes the current task, I have to use alt-tab to get to Outlook .

That is the Windows Mail icon. If you had mail and used Try new Outlook, you can turn it off to get back to Mail or Help > Go to Mail.
This shows Outlook and new Outlook icons:
