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

    TY to OP, as this clearly shows a problem the majority of us have with the UI layout. Please, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, write feedback as explained throughout the thread, that this change was something you DO NOT LIKE. Select, copy, and paste this thread's title, which will make it that much easier to leave feedback. This change needs to be made optional or reverted permanently.

    It doesn't happen until you have a new sign-in, as I was researching an email claiming there was a breach attempt on my account and suspected the email to be a phishing attempt. When I signed in through, https://account.live.com/Activity to look at my activity, it triggered this change on my account's email.

    The correction to this change of the UI layout will not happen, unless everyone who is unhappy with it, leaves feedback.

    Also, if the change was triggered by a new sign-in, it may take another new sign-in after it is corrected to revert. Hopefully, M$ at least includes the ability to revert or choose the column alignment that suits the user best.

    Same here as everyone else,

    having to move across the screen each time is awful and time wasting.

    I have also left feedback for this unnecessary UI change.

    I think , the chances of Microsoft fixing this inconvenience is very low.

    Because it only affects the people who prefer to hide the reading pane.

    Currently, to bypass the frustration we can enable the reading pane,

    which in turns brings the quick action buttons within reach.
