""As for Outlook, users are likely to have multiple versions installed. Microsoft forced the new version onto devices as part of a Windows update and renamed the previous version to Outlook (Classic)...""
""According to Microsoft: 'The new Outlook for Windows, built upon modern service architecture, is inspired by the Outlook web experience.' It also does not support the COM add-ins used by many enterprises to glue corporate workflows together.""
Scott Hanselman highlights the confusion surrounding numerous Outlook variants in a humorous post. He notes that many users struggle to choose between applications like Outlook New versus Outlook (Classic), amid more whimsical names he proposed. This exemplifies a broader issue with Microsoft products where users often have duplicate versions installed. While the new Outlook aims to modernize the experience, it lacks support for essential COM add-ins, causing hesitation among businesses reliant on these workflows. Microsoft is transitioning users to this new version, but it currently remains optional.
