I need to return to my classic Outlook. I need to turn off new toggle. I can't. Help
NebilSedki I just had this issue and was able to get back to the Classic view and everything was restored and back to normal.
1. Open Outlook
2. Click the Help action at the top
3. Click restore back to classic or Revert to legacy whichever yours shows and it reopen in the Classic View
My problem is that when I click "Go to Classic Outlook", Outlook just shuts down. When I try to open the old Outlook app, nothing happens. I also do not have the toggle switch!

This is exactly what is happening to me. I need to go back to Outlook Classic. The functionality missing for me, which is huge, is the ability to move messages or folders from one email account to another.

Have you tried repairing the office install? Or opening outlook.exe from the file system -
Outlook is here if you use 64-bit office "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE"
if you use 32-bit Office, it is here -"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE"

This works for me. I had searched via explorer for "OUTLOOK.EXE" and couldn't find it but it was there when navigating to the folder you indicated (I have 64-bit). Thank you!
