Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
I am in the Classic Ribbon layout and can't see the templates in the new outlook.
In New Outlook, how do I get to create a message form User Templates in File System?

Hello,
I have several standard message templates that I currently access from the Home ribbon by clicking New Items->More Items-Choose Form. In the Choose Form dialog I change Look in to User Templates in File System and I can choose the template I want.
How do I do the same in New Outlook?
Thanks,
Paul

Me neither. I'll have to revert to old Outlook for this simple reason. None of the suggestions here work for me.

In the new Outlook > classic ribbon > "Apps button" > "My templates" lives there.

It is ideal for short text-only content. You can't add tables or forms so it's pretty useless.
I have done multiple searches on this issue, and I am surprised that they took away the form template features. I stand by my alternative solution of using custom Signatures to create templates. This has been working for me.
