    No fix, also the new Outlook doesn't support offline (PST/OST) files, so I would just keep on using the Outlook Classic.

    I finally solved this annoying issue.

    In the task bar on top of MS Outlook go to <view>

    There in the layout section choose <reading pane>

    Then <options>

    Uncheck the "Turn on automatic full screen reading"

    Done

    *Insert heavily worded complaint with expletives*

    How is this not fixed yet? Once again, I return to the previous version. Thanks for making me feel old and out of touch. Now get off my lawn! :P
