2,We can also use the registry to disable the New Outlook toggle in Outlook Desktop and deploy below registry to the Windows devices.

This value hides the Try the new Outlook" toggle in Outlook Desktop:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General]

"HideNewOutlookToggle"=dword:00000001

Never in a million years would I willingly give up .pst files, as I have nearly 30 years of emails stored in them. I'd really like to disable this garbage, lest I accidentally blow up my world.
