How do I move the task bar (has apps: mail, tasks, calendar, etc.) back to the bottom of the screen? Is this called the task bar? I can't figure out how to restore the settings. See picture.

    Ugh, yea. I fixed it by toggling OFF the 'coming soon' tab in the top right, then restarting the program. Hopefully this new feature does not become a permanent setting.

    Cannot claim it, but can confirm this works:

    Close Outlook, and then in the registry editor, navigate to the following registry key…

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentEcs\Overrides

    Locate the “Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar” string value and set it to “false“. If there isn’t a “Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar” string value in this registry key, create a new string value in this location called “Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar” and set it to “false“.

    You can now open Outlook again and you should be able to enjoy your Navigation buttons back at the bottom of the screen again.
