Outlook Search not showing Recent Emails (December-2021)

[VineeshKV88]

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 tried re-building the Indexing but it was same. Once the issue started I had searched for the solutions and finally found that recent Windows update has created the issue. I had uninstalled that particular update and the search issue was fixed.

So let us know when the fix will be available for this bug?

Corect one:

Enjoy!

(Basically it is a normal win10 update process)

I have the same problem as all of you. I have to rebuild the Search Index every day so I can search the last emails. That's very annoying.
I will never understand how Microsoft miss this programming failures in widely used programs such as Outlook, and I understand even less how they take so long to solve it.
Please Microsoft solve it fast!!!!

This is being ongoing issues since November i for one can not understand why this bug cant be fixed i have done all recommended fixes and still i sit with a search in outlook that does not work properly, this in turn causes that i cant do my work for the business and my Boss is about to terminate my contract!?! i wonder if there is a law suite i can follow to hold Microsoft liable for this loss if i do get terminated.

Hi All,

Here are some steps our Outlook Support Team pulled together for implementing the Known Issue Rollback.  

1. Download and Install the MSI file corresponding to the impacted Windows 10 version from (see links under Group Policy), https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/status-windows-10-21h2#2778msgdesc

2. The successful install of the MSI file will lay down the ADMX and ADML files in the “C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions” folder:

3. Now Open the Local Group Policy Editor via Start->run->gpedit.msc

4. Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> KB 5007253 Issue 002 Rollback -> Windows 10, version 2004 20H2 and 21H1
   
   Double Click on the policy Setting on the right labelled “KB####### Issue XXX Rollback”. This will open the policy and you should see the below screen
   
   The default setting is “Not Configured”.

Change the value for the KB 5007253 Issue 002 Rollback policy to “Disabled" then click "OK" to disable the regression

5. Reboot the device for the changes to take effect

@VineeshKV88, I temporarily solved the issue via applying the workaround described on Outlook Search not showing recent emails after Windows update KB5008212

The issue was completely gone after I got the cumulative update January 11, 2022—KB5009543 (OS Builds 19042.1466, 19043.1466, and 19044.1466)

[#17]

hello are these creators creative? Is this a temporary solution?@Gabe Bratton 

[#18]

I've try the Known Issue Rollback in 30 PC (using GPO policy deployment) and in all computer work fine. This night I apply the KIR in all domain computer (we hope well !!!)

@JovanG, have you tried the workaround described on Outlook Search not showing recent emails after Windows update KB5008212?

I had been using it for several days before I rolled it back. I did only today, by the way.
