Outlook indexing not working (again) - Microsoft Community


what there many question/answers on outlook search not working.

its shameful asking question @ on such mature product made 1 of world's biggest software company.

i developer , think student fixed , working without manual intervention.

scenario is;

  1. outlook indexing enabled.
  2. i have thousands of emails, last 1 titled "microsoft community" microsoft.com.
  3. i search microsoft , "no result" instantly.
  4. i cannot believe software cannot see there problem , automatically re-index (maybe asking user first).

have tried suggested solutions , none worked. thing worked re-installing office 365.

a few weeks later , it's happened again time re-install did not work.

i ask again, how indexing made complex point doesn't work.

microsoft should not asking people pay gross incompetence - shameful.

the way can search email start outlook in safe mode , perform non-indexed search.

fyi: have latest version of software.

shameful, microsoft.
