Since yesterday afternoon I have 'Try new Outlook for free' over my hotmail account, effectively blocking me from using my email account or logging out. I don't need an all whistles and bells account but I cannot get rid of this intrusion. There is no option to just say 'no thanks' or to close the window but apparently users can revert back if they don't like the new look!!!! |

Have you tried shutting the PC down and opening up again? I am sure you will have tried that but just in case..... Sounds very annoying and intrusive. Why are all these new 'things' never ones we want that benefit us? |

I just tried on my phone, it also wanted me to do the same but gave me 2 options, accept or decline. |

Mine has a sliding buttontop left when looking at the list of emails. Try moving that - then I think you get a page of stuff - go down to the bottom - I think the choice is there. |

On my computer , at the bottom of the box offering "new Outlook" I have the choice of "Download" or "Not now". |

Many thanks everyone :-D piecing together your suggestions and wondering why I had no 'accept or decline' I checked the screen/view size and discovered this darn thing had increased it to 150% :-0 I sometimes go up to 110% but never 150 - my eyes aren't that bad! |
