The new update on OUTLOOK mail, is terrible

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.

    This new version is beyond bad. Half of the key functionalities are gone, and the other half is 7 clicks away, which is tedious and time-consuming. Outlook is a business tool, not a toy for kids Microsoft, stop messing around. Windows 11 is enough of a disaster.

    Tried it today and hate it too. Quickly revert back by disabling the "trial".

    MS will lose reputation. Those corporate users no choice but to use, will curse IT.

    Please don't make it mainstream.

    Disabling new look no longer possible, and the option you show does not exist for us Mac users forced to use outlook.
