So I was basically on a site where the contact link was just a mailto:// ..email@domain. When I launch the mail app normally it forces the new outlook, which fun fact doesn't work for me because it can't install webview runtime or something like that, I know I'll be reseting my laptop... probably before 2026 and I blame the mac for my laziness. So yeah the app is still there, and if I write mailto://email@domain (not just mailto://) in the run window it still opens as usual with the compose window and I just tab a couple times to get to my mailboxes and it still works fine for the moment. I am very very frustrated how Microsoft is forcing the change that horrible way on everyone, but hope that this can help someone out there.
