How do I change my Outlook view back to normal? This is a common question among Outlook users who have accidentally altered their email view settings. Whether you’ve changed the font size, color, or layout, getting your Outlook view back to its default state is easier than you might think. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to restore your Outlook view to its normal configuration.
Outlook is a powerful email client that offers a variety of customization options to suit your personal preferences. However, sometimes these options can lead to unexpected changes in your email view. If you find yourself struggling to navigate through your emails or if the formatting is no longer to your liking, here’s how you can revert to the normal Outlook view.
First, open your Outlook application and navigate to the “View” tab at the top of the screen. This tab contains various options that allow you to customize the appearance of your email view. To change your Outlook view back to normal, you need to reset these settings to their default values.
1. Reset the email view
Click on the “Reset View” button located in the “Current View” group on the “View” tab. This button will restore your email view to the default settings. If you have applied multiple customizations, you may need to click “Reset View” multiple times to revert all changes.
2. Check the “Use a single large font” option
If you have enabled the “Use a single large font” option, it may be affecting your email view. To disable this feature, uncheck the “Use a single large font” box in the “Formatting” group on the “View” tab.
3. Adjust the font size and style
If you have changed the font size or style, you can adjust these settings by selecting the desired font from the “Font” dropdown menu in the “Formatting” group on the “View” tab. Choose the default font size and style to revert to the normal Outlook view.
4. Reset the folder view
If you have customized the view for a specific folder, you can reset it by right-clicking on the folder and selecting “Reset Folder View.” This will revert the folder view to its default settings.
By following these steps, you should be able to change your Outlook view back to normal and enjoy a more comfortable and efficient email experience. Remember that these changes are not permanent, so you can always go back and make further customizations if you wish.
