Suddenly today my folder pane is hidden by default. I have not changed any settings. I can go to View>Layout>Folder pane>Show and it will pop up but it will disappear if I click anywhere but the folder pane. I need to see the folder pane all the time. How can I change this? (And why did it change itself?)

    I thought selecting "show" pane would solve it, but it didn't. Did not find this answer anywhere.

    ** Here's the deal. I finally figured it out. Under the HOME tab, there is a button "Toggle Left Pane" - click on it and the folder pane will stay open.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks Wanda!! Bless you! I've been working on this for DAYS and couldn't figure it out! Apparently, even Microsoft staff don't have a clue. No idea how you found it, but bless you. For the sake of others reading, here is where that Toggle Left Pane button is located:
