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

same here, I was happy with them being where they were, and would like the option to put them back, and as a paying customer to premium, Its not much to ask for.
Please - I am not providing an answer here but instead am trying to find the steps I must take to get my quick action shortcuts back to the left side of my messages received . . . my problem is the same as described by this person. How do I get it back to the left? I don't like this change and do not understand how/why it happened and how to fix it. Please - is there anyone out there who can help me??? Please?
Hope you're right!
Indeed, this appears to be rolling out incrementally. I have 5 Microsoft accounts (4 are Hotmail, 1 is MSN). The location change appears in 2 of the Hotmail Accounts and in my only MSN account (so 3 of my 5 accounts have the change implemented). Also, logging in/out and or changing browsers doesn't seem to impact it. I have officially submitted negative feedback.
Interesting tidbit: In Settings\Mail\Customize Actions, the description area for 'Quick actions' still says "Quick actions appear beside sender names and subject lines in your message list."
For what it's worth, some of you may recall that this also happened a few years back. The Quick Actions were moved to the right and then at some point shortly thereafter were moved back.
So because the description area always has said (and still does) that the Quick Actions are supposed to be next to sender names and subject lines combined with the fact MS quickly resolved this when it previously happened some years back, my belief is that they will once again rectify the issue in a timely manner. At least that's what I'm hoping.
I have always had the Reading Pane hidden. I like to open emails so I can see them, not preview them in a tinny area of my screen. The Quick Actions were between the sender and subject until mid-day yesterday when it moved on it's own.
