    Good day Lane, 

    Currently, the classic To-Do Bar isn't available in Outlook on the web. This feature is supported only in Classic Outlook for Windows. 

    In Outlook on the web, the equivalent experience is provided through the My Day pane, which lets you view upcoming calendar events and tasks while working in Mail, Calendar, People or Groups. 

    I recommend using the My Day pane in Outlook on the web. You can follow the steps provided in the AI Answer guidance to access and use it.

    If you still have access to Classic Outlook for Windows, you can continue using the To-Do Bar there. 

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    Outlook on the web does not have the classic To-Do Bar feature that can be turned on from View. In Outlook on the web, the equivalent is My Day.

    To show calendar items and tasks on the right side:

    1. Open Outlook on the web.
    2. Select My Day at the top of the page.
    3. In the pane, use the Calendar tab to see upcoming events.
    4. Use the To Do tab to see tasks.
    5. In the Calendar tab, select Switch views to change between agenda view and day view, and choose additional calendars to display.

    If the goal is the older persistent To-Do Bar layout from classic Outlook for Windows, that feature is not available in Outlook on the web.
