Hello,
As my title says I just installed a new solid start hard drive and a full version of Windows 10 that I bought at the Microsoft Store. I was having problems with my Windows 10 Upgrade for several reasons so I decided to do a fresh install.

It's been a few years since I had to install Office and I am lost with Outlook customizing settings, is there a good tutorial on how to format the fonts for each section of the Outlook interface.

I have figured out somethings but even after I change the font size for something I go back in to settings for example the messages in the main window and the font and size are back to default even though the fonts I changed are still working in the area I changed them.
If there is no tutorials here are my problems,
1. I would like to set the font and size for all messages in all folders to be the same
2. I can't find where to change the font and size of the folders
3. I can't remember how to add spell check to my messages I compose, I once added the spell check to the ribbon but forgot how I did it.
4. I have my messages in the main window set to single but I am getting a second line of part of the message I want to get rid of the mini preview.

Those are the main issues I am having. When someone answers these questions I will save it to my Documents so next time I will not have to ask for help again.
Thanks
Ron

1. in the message list, set the font size in Views. Disable the Group By View in Outlook - Outlook Tips gives the basic steps - it works for all changes to view, not just group by.

2. Assuming outlook 2010, Tip 894: Changing Folder and Message List Fonts - Outlook Tips 2013/2016 don't have this option and are limited to changing Windows display %.

3. This is in File, options, mail - near the top is spelling and autocorrect.

4. Assuming you see preview for unread messages, this is also in views, under other settings.
 
Thank you very much, You've saved me hours of searching !!
