I just got a new laptop and the toggle is there, but the old" Outlook isn't there. I was able to switch back with my old laptop but not the new one. :(

You can uninstall the new Outlook from the new laptop.
However, to run the classic (old) Outlook, you need to install an Office product which includes Outlook.
I have come to the conclusion that Microsoft has no intention of letting us go back to the classicOutlook. Every time I click on the button, it takes me back in the same freaking circle. They only want you to use the new Outlook, which has features I can’t live with. The only option is to use another email program.
seems they added an option at the top right corner of outlook which is to to quit the new outlook version and they ask you why. Once you fill out the form and send it, it reverted back for me. Note i had to download the classic version and opened that one to deal with it.
How/Where did you go to download the classic version? I can't find it anywhere.
