My email does not have the toggle option in the top right corner to get the classic outlook back. There is no longer the old outlook in the store either. I have also tried the steps in registry editor and that didn’t work out either.

Outlook | Windows | New Outlook for Windows | For home

    Hi Allan, I , like thousands of other hate the new outlook and keep uninstalling the new one only to find it back there when I next open my lap top, it seems you have made this new outlook like a virus and no one can get rid of it, I am coping with my 86 yr old husband who has Dementia and the stress this problem is causing is adding to my already very stressful life. Please help do you have someone there in customer service who can take over my laptop and change it back to the Classic Outlook for good please. Kind regards Ann Mackenzie

    I followed the path all the way to preference but do not have a "usenewoutlook" prompt. It is frustrating. I have two "newoutlookrenudge prompts, but that is all related to new outlook. Will be grateful for your help.

    Kevin, are you aware of any similarly useful 3rd party e-mail clients like Outlook that you have used to replace the lost functionality, now that we are forced to succumb to this new version of Outlook?

    Does OpenOffice have something similar?

    What's really sad about this is that I pay for a local copy of the Office Suite with classic Outlook and now to have to go to this crippled version is tantamount to Bait & Switch.

    Thanks for any options you have tried.!
