I am using Outlook 365 on the desktop, and in the upper right corner there's a toggle switch to "Try the new Outlook" that you can turn on, which I did. After discovering the annoying behavior of not being able to turn off the single click to open, I reverted back. I don't remember if that toggle switch stays exactly there once you upgrade such that you can toggle it back off, but somewhere I found the option to switch back. Here's a video showing the toggle. I think that's what I did, but not switching again just to find out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5D4KI4dSYM

Thanks for the reply. I’m not using 365.

I just have the old Hotmail which is now Outlook.

Anyone else have any tips?

Thanks for any help.

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

There is no 'option' when I click on <reading pane>

There are only "Show on the right" , "Show on the bottom", "Hide"

Some screen shots could help...
