Outlook Search not showing Recent Emails (December-2021)

Hi, I'm just writing this comment to try and help.
In my case I have solved the problem simply by doing a "Rebuild Index" in Outlook.
In any case, if the problem is not solved, it would be necessary to simply uninstall the Windows Update for which this error occurs. This update is KB5008212.
Once the previous steps have been carried out, the system should be restarted.
Once this is done, everything should work correctly !

- we done same things, but after two three days same matter
- You rebuild index and that's OK for the moment.
Will index until the day you rebuild, after it will not index new emails.
Turnaround:
1. uninstall KB5008212
2. OR Stop Windows Search service (net stop wsearch), close outlook and reopen, will display the remaining number of indexing emails.
3. STOP automatically updates. It's embarrassing the number of issues of the last year of windows 10 update and office Apps (the bug of big contacts and no scroll in to/cc fields)
Are MS sure we are not ALL at windows insider fast ring program??? - I don't know why? But 8 couldn't uninstall this update!
Also, when i did it, i realised that know it got worse the search index unfortunately and it shows me (my work pc, win32 bit, outlook 2007) 2016 emails
I am just waiting
P.S Although some pcs (newer) react a little bit different (better) to the search- 1. "I don't know why? But 8 couldn't uninstall this update!"

Type “Y” when asked to restart the PC and finish the uninstallation.
2. How do you realize/measure search index got worse after removing the infamous KB5008212 update ?
It will index the outlook items vs no indexing!
