Hi,
When outlook takes half of my screen, the "normal" option under folder pane is greyed-out. Also, I cannot open the folder pane and "pin" it ("pin" icon is absent).
How can I ALWAYS have the folder pane visible ?

what is your screen resolution and display %?
It definitely should be enabled if Outlook is at full screen. I dont see a GPO to force it small but know it will be unavailable if you use Portrait mode.
Are you using outlook on a tablet in portrait mode or on a smaller screen? When the outlook window is small, the folder list cant be pinned open. This happens somewhere around 1000 pixels wide.
You apear to be saying that when Outlook is maximised there are no issues - is that correct?
What version/build are you using?
