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!

    Yes I have two new folders OwaFV15.1AIIFocusedAQMkADZkOWY^NzE4LThiZzazewelstein thathave appeared in my side bar. They seem to be a copy of my inbox. They appeared yesterday and I finailly was able to delete them, now they have reappeared today. Initially concerned that they could be sinister but a bit more at ease after reading your report.

    Cheers Chris

    I just made a mistake of clicking the Focused one and it moved all my inbox emails, I panicked and clicked another folder then closed Outlook. When I opened it it forced me to a new Outlook interface which showed I still have all my e-mail. I clicked to revert back to old display and skipped feedback. Showing the old one the e-mails seems to be in the delete folder so I tried moving them back. Right after I moved the handful of recent ones it emptied my deleted folder - E-mails I desperately need. It seems the only way I can have access to those e-mail now is to use the new interface. Later on I found them in the new focus folder. Seems nefarious to me - I didn't want to use the new look because it was extremely slow previously and I needed my account to deal with important issues at the moment
