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

Anonymous

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!

Josh,

Thank you for taking the time to put this solution up on the community.

It leaves me wondering why it wasn't suggested by the Microsoft Agent Moderator.

I found another way as well, if you look on the left had side.

There is a square with four squares inside of it called more apps.

Inside if it is the old tasks manager that I personally love.

I then right clicked on it and hit pin.

Now I'm back in action like it never changed.
