Outlook 2010 not saving settings
Back ground: Running Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 Professional from SBS 2011 server with Exchange 2010 using roaming profiles.
Yesterday my machine performed an Automatic Update from Microsoft. As a result, my Outlook settings were somehow changed. For example emails do not show images anymore and my reading pane is turned off.
No worries, I change the settings and move on.... BUT, it will not save my settings.
Solutions tried:
1) Checking the icon to make sure it is not set for Compatibility Mode.
2) Rebooting machine (more than once).
3) Checking to make sure there is not a phantom Outlook.exe running in processes after I shut down Outlook.
4) Checking the Sound Notification setting.
Anybody have any ideas how to get Outlook 2010 to save my settings.

Microsoft pulled that update FYI :)

Thanks - I figured it was the update.
Won't it just reinstall automatically at some point? I assume Microsoft will have an updated fix pretty quickly anyway.
