Joan, I think even 'computer experts' must get annoyed by changes for the sake of it.
It's such a waste of time too, when all you want to do is reply to an email.

Thanks Joan. I have a reply button with left pointing arrow and now I have a forward button with right pointing arrow - not sure what the purpose of these arrows is? I don't have a reply all button or double arrow.
Hotmail must know that account holders have conversation threads so why make it difficult by having the reply button at the bottom. Grown up children changing things for the sake of it as per. :-|

I assume not Joy but I'll try anything lol

I have two hotmail accounts, the other one is ok

Nope, can't be moved but here's a thing - the 'reply' button in question no longer has 'forward' and 'reply all' as options :-S The whole layout has been reversed so 'font/size etc are now at the top. :-S

Just a thought but will it drag and drop, Island?

My reply button has moved to the bottom of the window which is a pain with threaded emails - ie, having to scroll to the start of conversations.
Anyone know how or even if, I can put the button back where it was - above the received email?

I've searched for the topic but nothing matches my question.
