There was a toggle to try the preview up in the right corner, try see if you can toogle back to the old version! Might not be possible though because this became the standard interface not long ago! So it’s possible you got it by default now!
This new outlook won’t let you see any group calendar like before! For example if you add the group calendar web part on a sharepoint site and add this to teams or just click the link you will be taken to your personal calendar! Before you got both! What you can do is to add the group so it’s visible in outlook! This way you can show the calendar anytime from outlook!
By default groups don’t show in outlook if they were created from Teams! But you can run a powershell command to make them visible:
1: Connect to exchange powershell module
2: set-unifiedgroup -identity “group” -hiddenfromexchangeclientsenabled: $False

adam deltingerThank you so much for your reply!
Unfortunately there is not a toggle for me to get back to the old version.
I have a silly question... how exactly do you connect to the exchange powershell module?

Also keep in mind that by exposing the group in outlook, people can be confused and they will be able to access mails sent to the group
