You can only change it back with a reg edit: But I hope that MS listens and gives us an option to choose within Outlook and revert it back easily for everyone.

 

1) Open Regedit: In the search box on the taskbar, type regedit, then select Registry Editor (Desktop app) from the results.

2) Navigate to Computer\
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentEcs\Overrides\
OR for some people only this folder works
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentEcs\outlook\Overrides\ Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar

3) If this string "Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar" does not exist, create it by right clicking on Overrides in the left pane and selecting New->String Value

4) Paste "Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Hub.HubBar" in the new entry that appears in the right pane

5) Double-click the new name

6) Enter "False" in the Value data field.

7) Click OK

8)Close and restart Outlook
