GET RID OF NEW OUTLOOK NOW - Revert To Classic PLEASE

LOOK OUT for OUTLOOK...steer clear and press on for another software package....

As of 07 FEB25/1300 Zulu +5,...

I too joined the ranks of the disillusioned by yet another attack against my patience, disappointment and eventual strain on my sanity, due to what I believe is a basic lack of common sense from our good friends at MICRO-****.

YES indeed, the fancy new OUTLOOK is as handy as a screen door on a submarine in my opinion. My solution to the assault on my patience and darkening mood today was to surgically remove the foul troll off my CPU and simply go straight to my internet server to collect my email.

I know this approach isn't convenient for businesses and folks who are running more complex uses of the email / communication systems out there, but for heaven sakes folks, a soul-less AI droid could have resolved all the problems that are popping up like a proper case of the plague running afoul in the computer community!

In my situation, (Windows 10 / 64bit / 32gB memory and a mother board with a hand crank affixed)., my CPU started having mini-strokes the second I rebooted the machine after installing the NEW OUTLOOK. After 10+ seizures and automatic system shut down, ...(thank you MALWARE,,) as well as using every live saving trick I could think of, I wisely RIPPED the "NEW" Outlook right out of the solid state hard drive....and with a great sense of relief I might add.

I often wonder how this company actually stays in business except by brute force of pushing new software down our throats due to their death grip on the software arena. Nowhere in this business model, do the software "wizards" factor in compatibility to older architecture hardware systems with as much enthusiasm as they do to the sharp edged push toward "a shiny new ugrade" without proper research to the overall effectiveness of their product;.

Do we have to buy a new computer with all the bells and whistles every 18 months to keep up with the keepers of the "code"...?

t's not really rocket science to write programs that will "bend and go with the flow" aso as to adapt to the vast range of hardware and operating systems....give me a break. For me, I'm going to take a big jump back to XP and / or Windows -7- loading up from full install disks;

I know I'm sounding off like an "old buzzard" who drives a car with huge tail fins with a "three on tree" gear shifter, but sometimes, returning to the simple life of the "good old days" when cars were made of metal and the computer, (albeit...not wickedly fast), they did operate with much greater reliability.

BEEF up your cyber security and control the flow of data before it gets to the primary machine is the battle here. Bring back the "C" prompt and the days when Windows -7- had a decent image viewer. It's time to seek the better mouse trap and it's not expensive to do either.

Grumpy old man and his "angst & woe" will exit stage right....TA-TA...

since I am paying you for Office 365, I will be suing you for 3.5 million dollars

Fortunately MS did not remove the classic Outlook from your system, at least not yet. The classic Outlook is still in your Start menu and list of programs. They just removed the shortcut in the taskbar and replaced it with an icon similar to the classic Outlook.

Classic Outlook has disappeared. Clicked help and classic outlook but nothing happens< The dismiss New Outlook does not appear

After getting back to the old Outlook close the new Outlook. Click the Start button. Right click on Outlook New. Choose uninstall. This should remove the new Outlook from both the Start menu and your task bar. Be careful not to uninstall plain Outlook by accident.

It is likely that Windows Update will reinstall the new Outlook when run.
