Outlook for Mac 2021 reading pane
I use Outlook 2021 for Mac, have for years. Just staring today, when I opened Outlook, my reading pane was located on the bottom of my emails. I have always had the pane on the right hand side of the window. I made no changes to any setting. I changed the reading pane back to the right side, but when I close Outlook and open it back up, the reading pane returns to the bottom of the screen. How can I get the reading pane to default to the right side of the window?

Microsoft has acknowledged the issue and logged it as a bug.
You can roll back to the release from October 20th until they released a version which includes a fix.
You can obtain the download for the October 20th release here;
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-office-for-macThanks so much! I hope they do fix it. However, I'm not sure I know how to download and install the Oct 20th release. If you could supply the exact steps (I am not very computer literate) I would need to take to do this, I would appreciate it. If I don't feel comfortable with that, I will put up with the frustration of swittching it back every time I go into Outlook. By the way, how will I know when the bug has been fixed?
Thanks!!!!
