    Hello all!
    Not sure what happened or how this was changed (I didn't change anything), bit I find it annoying.
    When opening Outook.com to read my emails, there used to be a "trash can" located near the sender name (and next to any attachment if included). I could click on that trash can to delete it immediately without have to choose the radio dial and then choosing the delete option at the top (where the options show what to do with the chosen email).
    While the trash can will still appear if I hover over the email, it shows way over to the right of the email and is not permanent.
    I suspect this may be a permanent change, but thought I'd ask and see if I could "fix" it (easily as I'm not the best computer operator!lol)
    I've attached a screen shot, but it doesn't show the trash can as it doesn't appear unless I'm "hovering" over the email.
    Thanks!

    I don't use my Outlook account very often.... I can delete mails very easily... Can do the ol click one and hold the shift key to highlight several mails....and use the DELETE button at the top...

    I looked in Settings for a few minutes and didn't see anyway to change anything related to this.
