Doesn't work. Going to View>Layout>Message List Header shows all options greyed out.

Restarted everything twice. Another one-way UI option - do they teach everywhere now??

Had to look up how to unset on the Internet, yet it doesn't work. Won't be touching anything else for fear of something else breaking. Great fun! :D

Now I cannot even see a list of my email messages, nor can I switch from Classic or anything else. Love the update! :D

Do you see the same problem after doing Help > Troubleshoot mode?


> Now I cannot even see a list of my email messages

Do you mean everything below the message list column names is blank?

If not, please post a screen shot.

My problem is only occurring after I search messages. When I click on the message I think I want to read in search results, the next window opens and "Message header list" is turned off.

Going to View>Layout> shows Message List Header option greyed out. (folder pane also greyed out)

In Troubleshoot mode the Message List Header option is on by default after opening the search result page and not greyed out. It has a check mark next to it.

I turned off the 1 small add-on I use that is active and has not been disabled automatically by 115 and I still get the same greyed out menu item. So I don't know where the incompatibility might lie. I updated again to latest 115 update this afternoon and still have the same issue.

Suggestions?
