    This solve it for 2 users at my organization.

    Run outlook.exe /cleanviews. Now you will see "Coming Soon" in the top right corner. Toggle it off. Restart Outlook in normal mode.

    I am not on Office Insider.

    I believe this is now released to everyone.

    I am on Office 365 Business, Version 2001, Build 12430.20184.   x-64 vs x-32

    FYI:  I believe File --> Options --> Search    you can: 

    • Uncheck the box:  Show most relevant search results on top
      • I finally found this and unchecked because Microsoft has no idea what is Relevant.

    The checkbox is still there for 

    • When possible, display results, as the query is typed.
      • But it clearly does not function
      • I would complain, but Microsoft would probably just claim: Well it says "When Possible", because they have no other answer or understanding of how it works

    Yes, you're correct...but that option to "display results as query is typed" works just in that pulldown and shows like 2-3 results at most.

    What I wanted to have is the old functionality in which the filter was dynamically apllied to all mails in that mailbox so I saw just those matching the cryteria. Similar with what happens after pressing ENTER when you input something there but it was dynamic result not applied after pressing Enter

    How could they mess this up over night? Unforgivable, but yes, Microsoft in a nutshell!

    One other thing to add to that: the pull-down thing isn't even competent. At least here, Suggested Searches shows the last 3 things searched for, but then it has about a two-inch vertical blank space before getting to the next section, which is "Recently Used Actions."

    It's as if MS intended to show more than the last 3 items, since there is space for ~8, but then forgot to display the rest. Either a bug or just a problem here with this ever-changing feature.
