I have had outlook 365 for years. Nothing on my end has changed. Suddenly (as of yesterday) every time i click on New Email a pop out window opens up (and the signature within my email is HUGE. About a 48 font yet the font showing is 12) This has never happened before and it is QUITE annoying. I have searched within the OPTIONS of Outlook and I cannot find anything with the option to open a pop out window when composing a new email. So there appears to be nothing for me to check/uncheck in this regard. As far as I know i have had no updates to Outlook that would have made this happen. Has anyone else had this happen and have you figured out how to stop it?????

    I'm having the same exact issue it started about a month ago have you been able to fix it? Was wondering if we must upgrade to the latest version of Outlook...? It's very frustrating I completely agree with you

    Thank you for providing those solutions unfortunately when I go on to my settings screen I am not given any of those options does that mean that I need to install a latest version of outlook on my computer?

    I have discovered today that if I click on the "read/unread" envelope icon next to the message in my inbox, the email opens up in the window and doesn't pop out as a new window. I use Outlook Web and a Wacom tablet with pen stylus for a mouse.

    I am having the same issue and can't find a setting for pop-out windows in any of my settings or options.

    Yes, I use Outlook web. It opens emails in the window when I use the mouse. I use a Wacom tablet and when I am using the pen it pops open my email message in another window. I do not like having floating email windows. It doesn't work well for me.
