Outlook 365, how to go back to OLD ribbon graphics and icons
I find outlook totally unusable since it updated to the new for-toddler icons. Not only is it ugly, it's distracting and unusable. As if outlook is broken and running in safe-let's-go-back-to-1995-m...
I woke up this morning and as usual check my emails. I know MS did an update because I have to reenter some passwords for my apps. When I open Outlook My response was: "I can hardly see anything". I have some vision loss and tweak my apps appearances to be more readily used. Offering new personalization options is not a problem for me. Taking away almost everything else is. I am presented with four, get it only four options for the background colors. The themes are not visible when I change them, so no help there. Now I have resorted to using a magnifying glass to be able to read my screen. Yes, a real magifying glass. This is not progress. This is a complete lack of thought for those of use who are visually challenged. Rjneng
I agree the new "design" is hideous, it looks amateurish and just downright ugly. I guess it's great for mobile? I hope so, because it is almost useless for desktop. Unfortunately for me, I almost exclusively use desktop. And what did they do with the Next/Previous message buttons? How in the world could a feature so basic have been deemed no longer necessary? If this keeps up, I'm switching to Linux.
