Using classic Outlook for Windows in business environments
Never used the "New Version," so that will not help me. Hopefully Microsoft will fix the problem.
OwaFV15.1ALLFocused etc.

Hi. Last night when I was using my Outlook mail it suddenly created two new files, e.g. OwaFV15.1ALLFocused etc. It then seemed to put my last few months emails into these folders (one being the replacement for 'focused' and the other one for 'other'. Looking online I can see a brief question/discussion about this in the last few hours so I assume this is a new problem. How do I stop this happening, and why did it happen? Is it sinister? Any help gratefully received, thank you!

Switching back out of the New version made the folders go away, but the user prefers the New view. The names appear to be constructed as temporary files with randomized strings at the end OwaFV15.1AllOtherjk;fajfdhfdjaslkfiw,,,,, showed up while I was trying to trouble shoot.
