Templates Missing in New Outlook

I am using the "New Outlook" on a Windows desktop.

The main issue I am having is I no longer have access to "Templates" or "My Templates".

I used to be able to insert templates when I was writing a new email.

Secondly I don't appear to be able to access "Add Ins".

    That is an option, but it seems very limited. You can only create very basic templates.

    I have not found a way to create a template that inserts email address, subject line, attachments, or formatting. This is great for a quick reply, but I would use the Quick Steps options in the top ribbon on the Home tab for a one step action.

    Have you found a way to have the View Templates add-on to add those previously listed items I mentioned?

    (Sorry if I'm just being dumb about this. I have tried every thing I could find and think of to get this working and I was the steps I mentioned a couple of posts back. ): )

    Well, this is horrendous. It was so much easier on Old Outlook.

    It's possible to create a template in the new app My Templates. However, it's not possible to have a pre-populated list of receivers. Why is every version getting worse with Microsoft?

    Found my answer finally - connected experiences have to be enabled. Turn on optional connected experiences is enabled in your setting. To do so, go to Settings or Gear icon-->General-->Privacy Settings-->make sure that Turn on Optional connected experiences is enabled.

    My "View Templates" button and disappeared templates are now back and available.

    It's not the same, it does not support a pre-defined send list.
