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.

    I subscribed to Microsoft Office 365 yesterday (February 10, 2024). The Outlook icon on the taskbar has been removed, not does it appear on the desktop or in the Start Menu. I see the Outlook (New) icon, but it contains no data. How do I open Outlook?

    Installing Outlook New has no effect on Outlook Classic, they will co-exist and run at the same time. No O365/M365 updates remove Classic Outlook, if you had it, it should still be there. Do you find OUTLOOK.EXE with the rest of the M365 apps Word.exe, Excel.exe, etc.) under this path?

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16

    Do you have both icons in your Start menu?
