Do I have to change them one by one? Custom View button No, there is no need to do that. In Outlook you can define View templates to easily apply changes to multiple folders at once. Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 also have a separate feature to copy the current View of a folder to other folders. Defining Views Depending on your version of Outlook you can access your defined View templates in the following way; ◾ Outlook 2002/XP and previous View-> Current View-> Define Views… ◾ Outlook 2003 View-> Arrange By-> Current View-> Define Views… ◾ Outlook 2007 View-> Current View-> Define Views… ◾ Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 tab View-> button Change View-> Manage Views… Custom View Organizer in Outlook 2007 (click on image to enlarge) Manage custom views dialog in Outlook 2007. (click on image to enlarge) Default Messages View By default, all folders and newly created folders are in the “Compact” or “Messages” View (except for the Sent Items folder which is in the “Sent To” view). When you make changes to this View, it will automatically also apply these changes to all the folders that are still in the default “Compact” or “Messages” View. If the View of some folders have already been altered, then making changes to the default “Compact” or “Messages” View will not alter the View settings of these folders. If you are using Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016, then you can use the “Apply Current View to Other Mail Folders” feature. For previous versions of Outlook, you can reset your Views first or create a Custom View template and apply it on first use of that folder. See further below for details. Outlook 2010, 2013 and 2016: Copy View to other folders Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 have a feature called “Apply Current View to Other Mail Folders” which allows you to copy the View of a folder to another folder without needing to make a View template first. You can access this feature via; tab View-> button Change View-> Apply Current View to Other Mail Folders… When you select the top folder (enabled by default) and the option “Apply view to subfolders”, you’ll apply the View to all your mail folders at once. Apply Current View to Other Mail Folders feature in Outlook 2010 Copying a View has been made easy in Outlook 2010. Note: The feature automatically hides special folders such as Sent Items, Draft and Junk E-mail. This is because these folders have special Views of their own. Reset all Views first It might be that you’ve already modified the View for some individual folders. This could be even something simple as modifying the column size. In these cases you will find that changes to the default “Compact” or “Messages” view will not apply to these folders. To prevent this from happening, you can force a reset on all the folders by starting Outlook with the /cleanviews switch; ◾ Windows XP Start-> Run: outlook.exe /cleanviews ◾ Windows Vista and Windows 7 Start-> type: outlook.exe /cleanviews ◾ Windows 8 Start Screen-> type: outlook.exe /cleanviews ◾ Windows 10 Start-> type: outlook.exe /cleanviews Note: There is a space between outlook.exe and /cleanviews This will reset all defined Views back to default, clears Custom Views and will apply the default Views to all folders (Inbox, subfolders, Sent Items, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Tasks and Journal). If you have many Custom Views already which you want to keep, you probably don’t want to do this. In this case you can define a new View and simply apply that View on first use of a folder. This is less cumbersome than defining the View per folder. Starting Outlook with the /cleanviews switch on Windows 7. Starting Outlook with the /cleanviews switch on Windows 7.
