Just a ‘heads up’ to let you know that KB3114409 causes problems with outlook 2010. It opens maximised, loses reading pane and sound (if installed) Uninstalling solves the issue.

I have a Win 8.1 user that had the same thing happen starting 12/8, however she does not have KB3114409.
Researched on line at length. Tried several suggested fixes:
Ran Outlook /cleanviews
Updated 2 registry entry permissions to allow everyone:
HKLMsoftwareMicrosoftoffice 14
KKCU ditto
Launched Outlook.exe with “Run As Administrator”
Verified that OL is not running in Compatibility mode
Ran Repair Outlook
Checked for KB3114409-absent
I don’t like to create new user profiles, but I guess that’s next.
Any other suggestions to try tomorrow?
