Outlook showing "from" field when replying to an email addressed or cc'd to me

Very recently, don't know the exact date, when replying to an email, addressed to me or I'm cc'd, Outlook shows the "from" field (with my email address, no other account).

I have one email account, I cannot find a solution to stop this from appearing, it doesn't impact anything, just it never used to show it, now it does.

It doesn't appear if I create a new email (wouldn't expect it to, as I only have one account), It also doesn't appear If I reply to an email that doesn't name me but am part of a mail group.

Anyone else have this "issue", a workaround or is there a fix?

    Version is File -> Office Account -> About Outlook

    As it's still an issue in 2410. It has not been solved, no.

    Something has changed, it now works, well done MS (about time!)

    No Idea why I posted that, It's still showing the from field in replies, so no it isn't fixed...!

    All

    I have figured out the "fix" for this by trial and error!

    If you have the registry value already set to '0', then put the '1' in the field. Restart Outlook. You will notice nothing changes and it will still be doing the same issue.

    Now, go back into the registry and put a '0' in the previous field where you had the '1'. Restart Outlook.

    Boom, problem solved.

    Nope, Still is an issue

    Well isn't this nice. Microsoft support pretty much blew me off. They admit it's an issue but they won't fix it?

    "This is known issue and cannot be changed. This is the change which is done globally for all the tenants. Please fill below product feedback where developers keep a track of change request from customers."

    It's a known issue but can't be changed??? What kind of answer is that, Microsoft?

    Not a very "English" answer.....
