Custom Search Folders in New Outlook

I have submitted feedback on the feedback page listed here for everyone's attention. Co-Pilot gave me a workaround using VBA, and not sure why such a simple search, which is available in most competitive products not available in Outlook - copy of feedback shared below

Add Folder Name Search in Outlook Desktop (Ctrl+Y / Folder Pane)

Description: As an Enterprise Admin managing multiple PST archives and thousands of folders, I find it extremely difficult to locate a specific folder in Outlook Desktop. Even when all folders are expanded in the Folder Pane, there is no search box to quickly find a folder by name. The current Ctrl+Y (Go To Folder) dialog only works for visible folders but does not allow searching across all PSTs efficiently.

Current Pain Point:

• Users often have hundreds or thousands of folders across multiple PST files.
• Scrolling through the Folder Pane is time-consuming and frustrating.
• Ctrl+Y is limited and does not provide a search capability.

Proposed Solution:

• Add a folder name search box in the Folder Pane or enhance Ctrl+Y to allow searching by folder name across all open PSTs and mailboxes.
• Display the full folder path and allow direct navigation to the folder.
• Optionally, include filters (e.g., by PST file or mailbox).

Business Impact:

• Saves significant time for enterprise users managing large archives.
• Reduces helpdesk tickets for “missing folder” issues.
• Improves productivity and user experience.

This feature would make Outlook far more efficient for organizations that rely on PST archives for compliance and historical data.
