Earlier, Microsoft has started to automatically push and install the new version of Outlook application based on WebView2Runtime on Windows 11 systems. Next, Microsoft will start to push and install the new version of Outlook to Windows 10.


For users, the experience of the new version of Outlook may not be as good as the UWP version of the mail and calendar applications, and there may be some gaps compared with the Win32 version of Outlook, but this does not prevent Microsoft from forcefully pushing it.

Of course, push installation is actually not a big problem. After installation, users can uninstall it by themselves. After all, uninstallation is very convenient, unlike Microsoft Edge browser, which cannot be uninstalled directly.

Since the UWP version of the mail and calendar applications have been discontinued, if you need to use an email client on the desktop, it is recommended to temporarily choose other software or the Win32 version of Outlook, because the experience of the WebView2 version of Outlook is really not good.

The new version of Outlook lacks a calendar function and is not a native application of Windows 11. It is essentially a progressive network application based on the network and browser. The advantage for Microsoft is that development is relatively simple and updates are very convenient.

If you have not used the new version of Outlook yet, it is recommended to give it a try. Maybe you may also be willing to accept this new email client: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nrx63209r7b?hl=zh-cn&gl=US
