Outlook 2016 "open in new window" doesn't remember size

Hi Everyone,

since yesterday my Outlook 2016 via Office 365 (64bit Version 1808 Build 10730.20102) does not remember the size of a new window opened -> e.g. Calendar or Tasks.

Everytime I resize it, close it and reopen it, it will open in a smaller Window on the wrong postion.

I have rebooted, started in Outlook in safe mode, disabled all Add-Ins and also reinstalled Office ... nothing helped.

This is really annoying and I need a fix for this.

Example:

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For home

    Hi,

    thank you for discover what is the reason for this problem. Looks as it is correct explanation, because I also have task bar in the upper position, but I don't want change it only because of MS Outlook problem. I am used to have task bar on the top of screen. Do you have solution for this wrong behavior?

    Thank you.

    Regards,

    Petr

    Hi Jennifer,

    any news ? Nothing new on the uservoice Forum. Only a few comments that approx 22k users of a bank face the similar issue.

    Is that a good reason now for MS to actually look into this issue ?

    Thanks

    Regards

    For them to say window size and position was never a feature implies that a new window should open based on default settings.  Default then, by default, is a feature. So Microsoft, what did you change in the default settings and how can we manipulate the changes?
