    It’s basically just their Outlook web app. It offers no extra function, and breaks a LOT of old functionality.

    There’s a registry key to turn off the button.

      Of course it’s a registry key.

        Well, it’s intended for companies, so for them there’s InTune policies or is GPOs. For us plebs, we just have to not press the button.

          GPOs

          Group policy can be modified by a laymen by launching gpedit.msc from Super+R or the start menu.

              Not on Home edition

              You can do it on home. Takes a lot of googling and monkeying around, but I did it on my father’s computer years ago.

      The Android app has done this for years too.

      After connecting my (non Microsoft) email account to the Outlook Android app I noticed the login location was geolocated in the USA… I live in Australia.

      Unfortunately there’s no way to turn it off.
