Arrange By Settings Won't Hold

A

ASBee

I have my Outlook Inbox arranged to view my messages by e-mail account, as I
use several. After working properly for over a year, Outlook will suddenly
not retain this setting and reverts back to the "date" default whenever I
move between folders or close Outlook. No matter how many times I select
VIEW/ARRANGE BY/EMAIL ACCOUNT, it will not retain the setting.

Any ideas of how to repair this issue?

Thanks in advance.

It's possible Outlook isn't closing properly so the settings don't get saved
properly. See if that's the case. This should help:
