I'm not using "the new Outlook", I'm staying with the "classic Outlook". Since I don't use it, I have to delete the app. To my surprise, it re-installs itself after a period of time. It's super annoying since I have to keep deleting it How do I stop this from happening?

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For business

    Agreed, I've tried Thunderbird, eM Client and Mailbird, and didn't like or get on with any of them, as I have 4 email address to use, and some only cater for 2.

    There was nothing wrong with the old Mail/Calendar app, it started quickly enough was nice and easy to navigate and use, and just worked...

    You'd think Microsoft would have got the message (no pun intended) by now few people want this new Outlook, I also have uninstalled it probably about 100 times, yet it keeps invading my pc, I've tried most of the regedit and other work arounds listed here, apart from the really complex batch file stuff as I just don't understand enough about all that, but they just don't work, getting really angry with Outlook now keep forcing it's self on me now.

    I have a mail app on my Samsung phone, which is similar to 'old' mail app, but I can't seem to find a way to get that to work on windows.
