How to view the to-do bar in the new outlook? It is convenient to have the work-day calendar (and/or to-do list) on the side while responding to emails.

For anyone else looking, the To Do is (at least as of now) in the New Outlook view. In the upper right area near the close/minimize/maximize buttosn there's a calendar and checkmark icon next to the notification bell. Hit that and it opens a calendar/to do pane.

    Sorry. I misunderstood then. I thought this was about getting the to do pane to show up. Trying to figure that out was how I found the thread. But maybe my post will help the next person looking for that feature. Good luck, and here's hoping Microsoft puts the functionality you want back :)

    Thank you for trying to help, but the point of our posts is that those are all separate clicks and locations. We need the functionality of seeing everything simultaneously, as we can now. Why would an update reduce function?

    Bring back the "to do bar"! I us it to search via categories in the to-do bar and it's very easy for me to find flagged emails move them to different category's and remove the flags this is how i work everyday and its a great way to do it. I plan to stay on the old look unless this feature comes across. This is a shame because I always like to try new things but taking this feature away has ruined it for me !

    I agree, it's a must have. Why is "upgrading" really a downgrade for power users? There's the built in mail app for those that struggle with basic outlook features, why continually dumb down? I also found that dark mode did not work correctly, and have moved back. Will actual Microsoft developers respond? I doubt it, they just hide away without taking any pride or responsibility in their work.
