what version of Outlook?

what blue bar to start a new email, attach a screen shot.
have your tried going to Control Panel > Programs & Features > select the Microsoft Office entry, then click Change (along the top). try a Quick Repair and if that doesn't resolve the issue, try Online Repair.

+1 on different browser.
what one are you using, and is it up to date?
probably it's Chrome, try Brave, Opera, or Firefox.
what extensions have you got installed in that browser?
starting the browser in Safe Mode, Private Mode, Troubleshooting Mode (called different things in different browsers) will start it without extensions.
or you could create a new browser profile and log into the browser with that - few ways to skin this cat!

I've been using Firefox for years. .I restart my PC about once a week and it updates. It can be slow and also crash on occasion. So I also have Microsoft Edge and I tried that and it worked for new email. I'm not familiar with Brave or Opera. I'm in my sixties and I feel like a turtle on it's back when PC problems arise.
I used to be a Firefox fanboy - still am when needing a 2nd browser.
I converted to Brave about 2 years ago, and haven't looked back.
I'm yet to see a browser to go to all the websites I need to - there's always one 'special' website that doesn't want to play nice.
if Edge works for you, great, use that, although it isn't very popular and poo-poo'd by most of the online world.
probably simply because it's a) Microsoft, and b) the successor to Internet Explorer which was a dog's breakfast.

Now that we know that it is browser related, we can try resetting Firefox back to a factory state will correct this if you want to.
