I was forced to upgrade to the new outlook. None of my settings came over, including one of my email accounts, but you've somehow added two accounts that I don't want linked. This is completely unacceptable. Where are my view and interaction settings, and why has Outlook not carried them over from the prior version?

    Hi @Scott Hall

    Welcome to our forum!

    The new version of Outlook for Windows brings the latest features, intelligent accessibility features, and a new modern, simplified design to your Outlook application.

    If it's your first time switching to a new Outlook, you'll be prompted to bring in settings from classic Outlook for Windows. Select Import Settings if you want to bring them over, or choose Skip. To learn more about what settings are imported, see Migrate your settings to the new Outlook for Windows.
