This update KB3114409 was released last night, and if you installed it and currently use MS Outlook to get your email, well Outlook will be stuck starting in safe mode only.
This update has been removed now by Microsoft as of this morning.
The update causes Outlook to start in safe mode, which in turn will set all of the user settings back to default (Views/Fonts/Etc.). To fix the issue close Outlook and uninstall update KB3114409. A reboot is not necessary.
Microsoft pulls botched patch KB 3114409 that triggered problems with Outlook 2010
Microsoft's Patch Tuesday update KB 3114409, intended to help admins keep Outlook 2010 from starting in safe mode, has in fact done just the opposite. Many Outlook 2010 customers report that installing KB 3114409 forces Outlook to start in safe mode.
As of early Wednesday morning, the patch has been pulled, but if you're experiencing odd problems with Outlook 2010 -- it opens in safe mode only (always opens maximized and has no sounds, no reading pane, or other view settings that stick), has broken templates, and much more -- you should look at the KB 3114409 article for instructions on how to remove the patch.
