How do you permanently turn off new outlook?

I don't like it, I don't want it, I am not going to switch to it, and I never want to see it again. For the longest time it would periodically switch to the new outlook, I would turn it off, and submit feedback stating the previous. Now it auto opens every single time. I do not ever want to see the new outlook again for the rest of my life. Do not make me switch to Mac or Linux or whatever because I am petty and will eventually become so disgruntled and delete everything Microsoft and never spend another dime on anything they make over something stupid. I want to know a way to permanently delete the new outlook off my system so it doesn't get to that point.

    My Working Method to Prevent Automatic Installation of New Outlook

    Required Programs:

    1. Windows Mail and Calendar AppxBundle (available online)

    2. Uninstall Tool 3.5.2 (or any version, as there are many uninstall tools)

    Steps:

    1. Open the Uninstall Tool.

    2. Navigate to the "Windows Store Apps" tab at the bottom and locate Outlook New.

    3. Right-click on it and select Go to Installation Folder.

    4. Use IObit Unlocker to delete some files in that installation folder ( any files)

    5. Uninstall New Outlook from the Start Menu.

    6. Reinstall Windows Mail and Calendar AppxBundle

    Done!

    A user posted a comment on my website - https://www.slipstick.com/outlook/classic-outlook-not-new-outlook/#comment-221507 I have not tried it though -

    >>

    I found out the new Outlook version is in the following folder:C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.OutlookForWindows_1.2024.925.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.
    I prevented the installation of the new Outlook bij renaming of the folder Microsoft.OutlookForWindows_1.2024.925.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.
    To do this I had to become owner of the ( Hidden) folder C:\Program Files\WindowsApps.
    How to change owner is written here: https://www.guidingtech.com/how-to-access-windowsapps-folder-on-windows/

    I did uninstall the new outlook. It's not bothering me anymore. I got rid of it and all is well.

    Thank you all for your help.

    Over and out now.

    If by deleted you mean you used the toggle switch, you need to do something different.

    Go to add or remove programs and uninstall it there.

    Then the heavens will light up and the angels will sing!

    Okay well, you will get back the old outlook
