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.

I would not say for us. Looks like they want to drop support for Office Outlook for Windows codebase and move to cross-platform code based on Outlook Web. And as the most of cross-platform solutions it works the same bad on all the platforms. Maybe this is better than Office Outlook for Mac.

2025-07-13T21:31:44+00:00 The instructions to remove this are a piece of ****. I have Win 11 and I received instructions for Win 10 from Microsoft even when I told them specifically that I had Win 11. There is NO default app called Mail in the settings. I have been told to modify the registry. The idiots are guessing. I cannot turn off the new Outlook when I want to go back to the web-based server, so I am stuck with this garbage. Is there any intellectual that knows how to disable this piece of horse manure.
