How to revert task list in outlook to the old version?

I prefer the look and productivity of the old version of tasks with red flags and easy overview. The new one is not as clear and intuitive. How do I revert it back to that. Hint, I didn't opt in for the new outlook look, so the button on the top right corner already says off for the new version, but my to do list decided to switch anyway - very annoying. Please help me figure it out.

Many thanks!

    Yes, this worked. In Outlook just go to File, Options, Tasks, and uncheck the box for "Open new Tasks in the To Do App".

    This worked perfectly! Thanks! The new version of To-Do is practically useless. The classic task list is so much more rich and productive. What was MS thinking with the new To-Do?

    Same! I can't locate the 'More Apps' button on the Navigation bar.
