Mail continues to switch me to Outlook - how do I disable?

About every 2- 3weeks, the Mail app continues to automatically switch me to Outlook, without asking me. And I have to manually switch back to Mail.

I run an HP Pavilion laptop with Windows 11.

I'm aware that Mail will eventually be discontinued, however, that's not for another year. I plan to use Mail for the next year, since Outlook currently is very difficult for me to use. However, Mail continually tries to suggest I switch, and then forces me to switch. This has happened over and over again for the last few months.

What can I do to disable Mail from switching me to Outlook?

    This DOES NOT fix the problem.
    The App needs to be completely uninstalled/reinstalled every time.
    Outlook is unusable. Please please please please please fix this!

    Hello, does resetting Mail mean I will lose all of the events I've saved?

    Uninstall Outlook, add/remove programs. Make sure you are not uninstalling Mail app. Works good for me and yes it was very frustrating having it open every time I opened my email.
