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.

New Outlook App on from Windows Store also terrible UX/UI is terrible maybe have to wait till 2050 updates

Good lord ... Nope. "aint nobody got time for that"! This "new look" basically binned a whole load of important set up features like even my IMAP accounts went missing, why?. what the..? Guys, this new look was a waste of money, if it isnt broken dont fix it. New looks should not banish functionality wholesale like that. Microsoft messed up Onenote with that ridiculous "metro" offering, and now the best email manager in the world just got a silly makeover. NOPE not on my watch. Switching right back in three, two... done

GET THE OLD VERSION BACK BEFORE YOU CREATE A WAR! NO CONNECTION OF PAST EMAILS SO MY ENERGY PROVIDER HAS PISSED ME ABOUT FOR 2 BLOODY MONTHS AND COST ME MORE PHONCALL MONEY THAN BLOODY ENERGY USED!!! SORT THIS OUT RIGHT NOW OR ELSE!!! WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. in Tasks, I used to have screen shots and use it as a proceedure manual, on how to do the tasks. I can't assing tasks and see if they are completed. So many functions are gone. I can't even add columns, rearrage them, or mark as in progress. Agree this app is updated for newbies with very basic application needs.

The new update on OUTLOOK mail, is terrible
