I thought this had been fixed in an update, but it's back again. The bar containing icons for Mail, Calendar, People etc etc is again on the left side at the top instead of at the bottom under the folder display. Surely there must be an easy way to move it to the bottom again ............. please???

Try this -

The solution that worked for me was open Outlook, then

  File, Options, Advanced, then uncheck the 'show apps in Outlook' box.

 Save

 Close Outlook then re-open - Bingo

    change the registry setting

    1. open regedit

    2)move to below path

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

    Locate and click the “Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar” string value in the Name column in the right section of the page. Then set the Value data tofalse.

    Thanks, I have two machines and one of them had this side app view and it drove me crazy. It's ugly and belongs at the bottom where it looks more natural and doesn't waste space. I don't know why Office 365 made this change but thanks for the tip to make it right again.

    Bingo is right, thank you. Was annoying having to scroll to the top/left to change navigation, especailly when all other icons are at the bottom of the screen.
