the search feature does not work in my "contacts" file? - Microsoft Community


when select (any) of "my contacts" files (i have three) , search (anything) results "zero" - search not find anything? happens in of 3 files, it's lists empty. have hundreds of entries in each 1 of 3 files?  

if sending "new email" - , selecting email address from address book - contacts come know in there somewhere.

but if click on "contact" icon @ bottom of outlook, shows contacts (three files), if enter in search contacts field @ top right of page can not find anything? no names - nothing? though on same page shows contacts! search feature has been turned off somehow? try same thing on other computer , works expected - finds works entered "notes" in each contact.

can this?
