Outlook Search not showing Recent Emails (December-2021)
Hi All, The outlook search option stopped working properly after WIndows10 update. The issue has happened after installing a security update from Windows (December 14, 2021—KB5008212). I had...
Installed yesterdays updates, KB5011493 and KB4023057 and the fault is still present. Windows 11, Microsoft 365.
As of 3/14/2022, problem is absolutely still NOT fixed. Windows 11, Office 365 MSO. System search is indexing fewer than 2 objects per second (~26 per minute). Search within the Outlook app is nonexistent or horribly incomplete - cannot find anything recent, and many times can't find anything period. Have tried most workarounds (besides a complete OS rebuild - Microsoft would need to pay ME for that). NOTHING WORKS - now three months after the company introduced the problem with a "patch". This is hugely affecting our small business. Abjectly incompetent behavior on the part of MSFT - ostensibly a "Fortune 500 company". SMDH.
It's a pain but after each reboot I manually stop and restart the "windows search" service (make sure Outlook is closed) and it works for me.
At least it's indexing the newest emails as they arrive.
