how to fix my view

Question

I apparently hit something on my keyboard inadvertently and my view completely changed. I have the inbox and the preview boxes, but the "inbox" column is so tiny collapsed it's meaningless text. How do I change this back to see the sender info, subject etc?

Hi Michele Santangelo

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.

Based on your description, it looks like your current view has been changed, which is why the message list appears compressed and does not display the sender and subject information as expected.

To switch back to the default layout, please go to the View tab > Change View and select Compact.

I hope this helps. Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.
