How to stop mail from opening split screen

The frustration of having your email open in a split screen!

There are a few reasons why this might be happening, and I'll provide some solutions to help you stop it:

Reason 1: Browser Extension or Add-on

Some browser extensions or add-ons might be causing the issue. Try disabling any recently installed extensions or add-ons and see if the problem persists.

Reason 2: Browser Settings

Check your browser settings to see if there's an option to disable split-screen mode or a similar feature. Here's how:

• Google Chrome: Go to Settings (three vertical dots) > More tools > Extensions. Look for any extensions that might be causing the issue and toggle them off. You can also try resetting Chrome settings by going to Settings > Advanced > Reset and clean up Google Chrome.
• Mozilla Firefox: Go to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions. Look for any extensions that might be causing the issue and toggle them off. You can also try resetting Firefox settings by going to Help > Troubleshooting Information > Reset Firefox.
• Microsoft Edge: Go to Settings > Extensions. Look for any extensions that might be causing the issue and toggle them off. You can also try resetting Edge settings by going to Settings > Reset settings.

Reason 3: Email Client Settings

If you're using a dedicated email client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird, check the settings to see if there's an option to disable split-screen mode or a similar feature.

• Microsoft Outlook: Go to File > Options > Advanced. Look for the "Display" section and uncheck the box next to "Split screen" or "Dual screen".
• Mozilla Thunderbird: Go to Edit > Preferences > Display. Look for the "Layout" section and uncheck the box next to "Split screen" or "Dual screen".

Reason 4: Operating System Settings

In some cases, the issue might be related to your operating system settings. Try checking the following:

• Windows: Go to Settings > Ease of Access > Display. Look for the "Display settings" section and uncheck the box next to "Show window contents while dragging".
• macOS: Go to System Preferences > Accessibility > Display. Look for the "Display settings" section and uncheck the box next to "Show window contents while dragging".

If none of these solutions work, you can try resetting your browser or email client to their default settings. This will remove any customizations you've made, so be sure to note down any important settings before doing so.

I hope one of these solutions helps you stop your email from opening in a split screen!
