Answer 1

Hi, I'm Rodrigo and I will help you.

You can find To Do or Tasks in Outlook 365 (Classic) in the left bar.
If you can't find it there, select "More apps" to see the other apps.

"Tasks" works and syncs just like To Do.

Answer 2

To Do is already integrated with the new Outlook for Windows; it is not a separate add-in that needs to be installed.

To open and use To Do in the local (new) Outlook for Windows:

1. Open new Outlook for Windows.
2. On the left margin of the Outlook window, select the To Do icon.
   • This opens the Tasks pane.
3. In the Tasks pane, choose any of your existing lists or select New list to create a new one.
4. Use Add a task to create tasks. Press Enter to save each task.
5. Use My Day to see and manage your upcoming calendar events and tasks anywhere in Outlook (Mail, Calendar, People, etc.).

If To Do is not visible, ensure the app is updated to the new Outlook experience that supports To Do integration.
