After changing to the New Outlook, my office apps still try to use old outlook application when I try to share a document (File - Share - Email). It opens old outlook but wont send. It just sets in Outbox. I assume some clean up is necessary to remove remanence of old Outlook?

    At the end I've uninstalled the new version, too many problem and is terrible offline. Really slow as new outlook work online and the usage is not really fast as program constantly interact with the online version. The old one is faster so for the moment, for me, question is close!

    Are you kidding me? 13 months and almost 50 posts on this and Microsoft hasn't even replied?

    To Microsoft,

    Why is it so difficult to answer this question, I am sure this isnt the first time it has been asked.

    Nowawdays, Outlook only installs via the O365 or "ClicktoRun" options, I would assume that there is an option to uninstall an individual application as it has in several previous versions.

    So we would like detailed instructions on how to uninstall "Classic" Outlook from either "ClicktoRun" or from the O365 so that only the "NEW" Outlook and all other office applications remain on the PC.

    I am sure this isnt to much to ask.

    Sincerely,

    Jeremy Allen

    Agreed, this is very poor customer service on Microsofts part...

    I am sure far more than those commenting here are struggling with the same issue and hardly a difficult scenario for Microsoft Dev's to replicate.

    Based on the lack of response I am guessing they currently have no method of removing just the Outlook Classic element of the Microsoft Office 365 App package. Just a shame they cannot at least provide that information along with a time line for a fix.
