After researching how to get it back to how it looked, which was much more in my taste, much easier to navigate, had what I needed and nothing more, - I now see I can't get it back after it was updated. I think i'm gonna completely disgard of this email, I liked how it looked on PC, it was dark, fast, easy to find things, now it's very complicated with a lot of options and tools i have no use for, and it's bright, with small buttons everywhere. The browser version is alright, so that is what I will be using. I will uninstall outlook completely as a program from my PC, as I do not wish to have this update, and it's more trouble and much more confusing and irritating, than helping and good. It will complicate work and how easy it was before, but that's just how it is, when updates are being forced upon people. It's a typical thing of big coperations to do this, so it dosen't surprise me, that some people who think they know it all, make something new, to shove down the users throat, instead of being able to choose ourselves.

The functionality of the new look outlook is the worst I have ever delt with!

New Outlook is the worst. I used to have the toggle to switch back to the useful version of Outlook. My company's IT said Microsoft forced the new version on us, so we can't go back. My productivity instantly dipped like 50%.

I hope you are seeing all this negative feedback and letting Microsoft know that there will be a mass exodus if they try to force this "New" Outlook on everyone!

WHY?????? I can't even explain how horrible of a program this has become, which users is Microsoft targeting? is not looking neither behaving like a professional tool anymore. Is so bad i I couldn't even reply certain email , why?, who's deciding which email i can or cannot reply to? Piece of junk, i switch back to the older more mature and reliable version.

Microsoft must have a Google insider who designed this new Outlook - it is designed perfectly to make Outlook so unusable that customers will have no option but to switch!

The new update on OUTLOOK mail, is terrible
