Outlook Reminder window has become much smaller

My Outlook's reminder winow has suddenly become much smaller

So instead of being able to see a list of reminders that have not yet been dismissed all that can be seen is one reminder at a time.

I have to manually scroll to view each reminder.

I can find no way to get the window to revert to its normal size.

Does anyone have any suggestions, please?

I have tried running "outlook.exe /cleanreminders" but this does not work

I am running Windows 11 64bit and Outlook 2021 Version 2406 Build 16.0.17726.20078

I have tried to upload two images but the upload fails each time

Thanks

    Do you have a link to the other articles?

    Did you change the screen resolution or are using a docking station?

    Have you restarted Outlook at least 3 times since the problem started? That sometimes fixes goofy behavior.

    I don't recommend using the scrub utility - I'm not convinced it will fix it if online repair didn't.

    Resetfolders switch has nothing to do with the reminders window. I doubt its a corrupt registry. Making a new profile is unlikely to work.

    Hi Diane

    Thanks for the response, my answers are below:-

    Do you have a link to the other articles?

    Reminder Window Outlook 365 on PC suddenly only displays one reminder - Microsoft Community

    Did you change the screen resolution or are using a docking station?

    No to both.

    Have you restarted Outlook at least 3 times since the problem started? That sometimes fixes goofy behavior.

    Yes. several times over 3 days

    Opinion on the the other thread is that it is a deliberate design change as a result of an update.

    I would be interested in your thoughts on this

    thank you for your interest

    regards

    Steve

    Apologies for the double post.

    I received an error message when I did the first post

    It's a bug. It's not an intended design change - I have the preview version on my computers and don't have it. I'll check with my contacts in support to confirm and see what they recommend. Because of the US holiday, I'm not expecting a response until Monday. :(
