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?

    Hello, thank you, I have the version 2410. Unfortunately, the issue is still there. It is really annoying. Hope someone in Microsoft can read us!

    Same thing happened at our company today. VERY annoying that this is something that can't be turned off.

    Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Preferences and set ShowFrom to 0 again. Close and relaunch Outlook.

    This was annoying me as well with Microsoft® Outlook® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2307 Build 16.0.16626.20198) 32-bit
