Searching in Outlook

[extraT]

Mods, please leave this thread in business- it’s more business relevant than anything else.

Does anyone else find searching in outlook for frustrating since the last 365update?

It used to be that in the search bar I could enter in a few key words and 99% of the time the email would be found.

Now, the same key words won’t find that email. Now I would need to click “from”, with almost all of the subject to find the same email. Very very frustrating- almost like facebooks “most relevant”, which very rarely is, where chronological would be better- but that’s another issue.

Am I just being stoopid or does anyone else find this? Any tips?

It seems to be working for me. I just searched for "satellite" & it found the emails with that word in both the subject & body text.

Have you looked in Outlook Options>Search to check what is being indexed?

It's definintely broken. I just searched for '"satellite" and didn't get any results.

That’s weird, I just checked mine and it found “satellite” happily……must be a sunspot affecting the signal!
