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

    Its going to be a good long time before that app replaces Outlook desktop. It will replace windows mail at some point in the future (I don't know when... but will guess maybe the fall?)

    The new Outlook is lacking too many features business users need.

    Without a File Button, how do I get to advanced settings like the trust center?

    There is no difference as to the actual Outlook Pre software- its the same if you have the toggle or not. If at least one account in the Outlook profile isn't supported in the new outlook, the toggle shouldn't be shown.

    Getting started with the new Outlook for Windows - Microsoft Support

    If you get the new Outlook from the windows store, it wont have the toggle.

    It's possible to hide the toggle using a registry key -

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

    If you don't have the choice of the good Outlook when you search for outlook (as seen in my screenshot), the good Outlook is here -

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE

    or

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE

    Open it and pin to start menu and taskbar.
