outlook.live.com quick actions moved to far right of email and I can't move them back beside Sender/From and Subject.

My outlook.live.com quick actions moved to the far right of subject and received column and I can't move them back beside sender and subject. The quick actions appear on far right of email. I went to Mail - Customize actions -Quick actions. The template shows them on right but the screen narrative shows "Quick actions appear beside sender names and subject lines in your message list". Please help me get the quick actions back to between From (Sender Name) and Subject.

Thanks

    This change, moving the quick action buttons to the right, is a HORRIBLE change. When they were between Sender and Subject, they made handling emails MUCH easier. Now that they are on the right, it is a royal pain to use them. Sadly, Outlook is now like Gmail in this regard, and what is probably the one feature that made Outlook web mail better then Gmail is now gone. Pathetic.

    That "customer service rep" sounds like he/she was full of BS.

    Another +1

    What on earth were the designers thinking? Maybe they are accessing this on a phone screen?

    On a monitor it is awful.

    Abysmal decision.

    I agree whole heartly that this change of screen location for quick actions is problematic and less efficient. I'm adding my comments in hopes that if enough of us complain they will move it back!!
