How to switch back to old compose-new-email method in Gmail
Do the following to turn off Gmail’s new compose-new-email pop-up window and return back to the old method:
- Visit http://gmail.com and log into your account.
- Once logged it, click on the red “COMPOSE” button so the new compose-new-email pop-up window appears.
- Once the pop-up window appears, click on the down arrow button:
- Next click on “Switch back to old compose” (UPDATE:
Google plans on eventually disabling old compose method completely. Now
you can only “Temporarily switch back to old compose” and later you
won’t be able to switch back at all):
- Done! Once you click on “Switch back to old compose”, the page will reload and you will have the old method back again.
