Hi. I am unable to unpin New Outlook from my task bar in Windows. Can you please advise? It seems that there is a new functionality with the right-click on the task bar icon for New Outlook. The popup window is different from all other applications. Thanks.

a different process of this recommendation worked for me. Thank you. I agree with the wasted time and never being able to recoup it. it took me almost 3 days to figure it out. I am surprised at Microsoft playing this game.

To remove this Outlook New virus (because that's what it is!) from the taskbar I looked for it in the Apps list and uninstalled it. Finally gone after wasting precious time. Thanks MS for messing up a perfectly good messaging system with a virtually unusable 'upgrade'. Let's just go back to DOS.

I have also been forced to move back to the old outlook. The "New Outlook" is just the web platform made into the app.
I have given it a good few weeks but there is just so much functionality missing from the traditional outlook.
THANK YOU!! Know that your efforts were not done in vain. It really helped me out with this most frustrating situation!! Stupid programmers.
