Outlook 2016 - can "Groups" be removed from the ribbon?
Is there a way to remove "Groups" from the ribbon bar in Outlook 2016 through Group policy or other means?
Here is an image, which I can manually remove:

As long as you know the control's ID, you can follow the method outlined here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/office-2010/cc179143(v=office.14)

Thanks Vasil, I'm running Office 2016 with semi-annual channels and C2R, do you think this would be under Office 2016 or Office 365? Any idea what control type this might be under?
Groups that appear on Outlook is from Autodisover & EWS calls and to disable it.. Groups features has to be completely disabled in Office 365..
I'm also looking for Vasil's update.

Rajkumar Duraisamy - question, if you were to disable this completely, wouldn't this disable the ability for users to create a Team site as well, since a Unified group needs to be created with a Team? Thank you
if we completely disable Groups in Office 365.. this will not show in Outlook. But the services that depends on Groups like Teams / SharePoint / Planner etc.. will not work..
So not recommended..
