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.

2025-02-28T01:48:38+00:00 It looks like the 2000 version of Yahoo! I like your idea of having more compact versions of Office and selecting the apps you use most. I hate the new Outlook. The interface looks like it was developed by some less-sophisticated Wordpress template.

2025-02-28T02:01:05+00:00 Fortunately, I am not using a new computer. I have this bookmarked for when I buy a new computer. I found this and hope it helps. Microsoft, maybe you should start considering who's creating your interfaces and find new UX designers 🤦. The new email is not user friendly, lacks features, the interface is clumsy and difficult to navigate.
Thanks, volunteer moderators!
=======================
If you recently bought a new Windows device, you may not be able to find classic Outlook, or the icon appears, but you get an error when you try to open it. The error might say it can't find Outlook, or it might say:
- We couldn’t verify and install this because it is not available in the Microsoft Store. To install, download it from the publisher’s website.
This issue occurs because starting in 2024, many new devices are preinstalled with new Outlook for Windows and don't ship with classic Outlook. If you prefer to use classic Outlook at this time, a standalone version of classic Outlook for Windows is available for you to install.
Install classic Outlook for Windows
To install a standalone version of classic Outlook for Windows, select Download and follow the prompts to complete the installation. Download
You can install it from the Windows store. Install from Store
