My Hotmail has been switched to Outlook.com automatically and I do not like the Outlook at all. I just need to get my Hotmail back and tried to do the steps mentioned. I can't find the sentence on how to switch back to the old Hotmail?

Going forward is always scary, but when an email service is deprecated, it is for good reason. Having a "new" email provider also makes you appear more up-to-date with technology. This is especially helpful if you are submitting résumés. – Travis Pflanz Mar 22 '13 at 21:20

I am sorry to say you cannot. Since Outlook.com has left "preview" the migration from Hotmail is permanent.
Microsoft's Hotmail phase-out: What's a user to do?
Q: If I move my Hotmail account to an Outlook.com account, can I change my mind and go back?
A: At this point, no. (When Outlook.com was still in "preview," Microsoft did allow this.)
Also (from Microsoft Support):
Why can't I switch back to Hotmail?
Thanks for being a loyal Hotmail customer. As part of the transition from Hotmail to Outlook.com—the next generation of free email from Microsoft—there is no longer an option to switch back.
