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.

    I hate the new outlook and I hate the fact the keep hassling me about it, I said no, that is enough. also if they force me to use it I will just use another genereic app and abandon MS mail altogether. The arrogance of microsoft is rivaled only by apple.

    You hit the nail squarely on the head! Study Marshall McLuhan's insightful work circa 1970 and you'll understand why. -- Carl

    You might check out postbox.  I have used it in the past and it is well written by a company that knows email.  It is based on the free Thunderbird program, but is more sophisticated, more stable, and has more features. Look here:  https://www.postbox-inc.com/Carl
