Method 3: Use the "Conversation" button

  1. Open Outlook and go to the folder where you want to disable conversation grouping (e.g., Inbox, Sent Items, etc.).
  2. Click on the "Conversation" button in the ribbon (it looks like a speech bubble).
  3. Click on "Turn off Conversation View" from the dropdown menu.

Method 4: Use the Registry Editor (for advanced users)

  1. Open the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) on your computer.
  2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Preferences (or the version of Outlook you're using).

After trying these methods, you should no longer see conversations grouped together in Outlook.
