Mail & Calendar Apps Will Be Replaced with New Outlook for Windows December 2024
Where are the instructions for preventing the roll out and sticking with the Mail and Calendar app? I'm not interested in the new outlook as its just a webview2 wrapper around outlook.com If I wanted that I would go to outlook.com in a browser, but I don't do that because its not a good mail or calendar experience.
The current Mail and Calendar app is extremely basic and just does mail and calendar. It doesn't do outlook plugins. It doesn't have links to office features I am not using. It doesn't log into my non-Microsoft accounts to store my data with Microsoft. It works offline. Its UI is not a cluttered disaster. These are all positives that are missing from the new outlook.com web wrapper app.
I would prefer to stick with the Mail and Calendar app even if it is "unsupported", so how do I do that?
Hi edevcn,
You can disable the New Outlook from the Help tab or Toggle button, as shown in the image below. However, by the end of 2024, New Outlook will replace the Mail and Calendar App.
- I already reverted to the Mail and Calendar app on every computer I use, but I'm asking how to avoid having to use the new outlook after 2024. I want to continue using the Mail and Calendar app for the foreseeable future.
