Outlook for Windows (also referred to as New Outlook) is an email client developed by Microsoft. It is a replacement of the preloaded Windows Mail and Calendar apps on Windows 10 and 11, and will ship as default with Windows 11 from late 2024 onwards.[2][3]

The new Outlook was outlined under Microsoft's 'One Outlook' plan, with testing starting in 2022.[4] In September 2023, Microsoft started transitioning users of the previous apps to the new Outlook.[5] It was released on the Microsoft Store that month, although it remains in preview status.[6]

Outlook for Windows is based on Outlook on the web,[failed verification] and builds on it with features like multiple accounts including from non-Microsoft services.[5] It still has some features from Microsoft Outlook (which Microsoft refer to as Classic Outlook in this context[7]) missing like .pst files.[6]

The free version includes advertising, and does not currently enable all IMAP accounts to be set up. It does not support iCloud aliases. It does not work offline.
