Outlook 2007 search on Windows 11 fails by returning no results
Since I upgraded to windows 11, Outlook no longer can search for text in messages.
This was working on Windows 10 and Windows 8/7.
This issue is causing me a headache, I had this issue when upgraded to Windows 10 but was able to fix it searching on the net.
I have tried everything Microsoft support pages suggested, and many others, but with no resolution.
Thank you for any help to resolve the problem.
Hi Jack, thanks for reaching out.
I finally fixed the problem on Windows 11 by simply going to:
Control Panel->Indexing Options->Modify->Unchecked “Microsoft Office Outlook”
Save everything and restart the Outlook.
Now I can search my mail box.
I thought keeping outlook checked is the right thing to do.
But Microsoft interface and docs, sometimes are not intuitive.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask, we’re here to help you further if needed.
Your VAF Team.
