It worked! Thank you! You have made my day / week / month/ maybe year!
I agree. I only do them when I have to. My menu structure is different. I don't have that sub menu.
How did you determine it was that menu? I am interested in that process for future issues.
I found that setting from a suggestion on another site (see previous post). I'm not certain what determines who sees it or who doesn't. I've seen a couple of other forum posts where others are saying they don't see it either. I took another screenshot, this one is of the message that appears when I hover over the 'info' icon ...
My other users have this as well, so it may be something related to our MS 365 tenant, but I wouldn't what that is.
Given that it says "snooze", it's eventually going to be taken away. You're probably further along with the update process, so you're not seeing it and can't change back. My "snooze" change will be taken away, probably after this weekend's Patch Tuesday updates. Just a guess.
Did you try to implement the fix I posted in this thread? It does not require admin on the system. Mine has been great for months since I made the change.
I FOUND A SOLUTION!!! This is not mine but I have tried it and it worked for me. I do not have admin on my work system and it still worked. I have not rebooted yet to see if it will persist without admin.
The site I found the solution on is: https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/7190-outlook-move-navigation-bar-left-to-bottom.html
If this removes the link or you don't want to go, here is the short steps summary:
- Open Regedit
- Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentEcs\Overrides
- If the string "Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar"does not exist, create it by right clicking on Overrides in the left pane and selecting New->String Value
- Paste "Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar" in the new entry that appears in the right pane
- Double-click the new name
- Enter "False" in the Value data field.
- Click OK
- Close and restart Outlook
- VoilĂ (pop culture reference, "which is short for, and then I found out")
I try to avoid regedits, and I'm glad I did. The solution is actually an obscure check box in the Options menu. Options > Advanced > UNcheck the 'Show Apps in Outlook' and restart.
