Is it possible to move the Search Box in Outlook to another position ?
Nope. Although they've gone through several iterations on this, so it might change in the future.
Just adding my annoyance with this change to this thread. Please put the search bar back where it goes Microsoft. There is nothing useful about where it is! This is so annoying!
Location of the search bar is awful. Put it back.
Our update was done yesterday. This is the most annoying one because I can't fix it. I had to fix the following: .pptx files were no longer recognized as Powerpoint files. They made the pop out so big for new mail, with outlook open, it went from being mildly annoying to a nuisance. So I figured out how to disable it completely. I'm sure there is more to discover.
This change is absolutely horrible. It takes so many more steps to search something now. Multiple clicks and typing and it is not clear or intuitive, nor can i pin my preferences on the search bar. Please allow users an option to move this back to where it was!
@Zidong_NIE To bad there isn't a forum that we could use to put in a complaint about this. I -still- find myself going to the wrong spot to search in Outlook. So frustrating. Can we report it as a bug?
