    The Outlook In App Team is still working to confirm from tickets we have gotten if the issue is fixed or not.

    Below are the KB updates with search fixes the team has been testing with and their status. Windows 10 should have the fixes at this point. Windows 11 is in release preview. Whether these fully address all the issues, we don't know for sure yet.

    Please let us know when can we expect the KB5011563 for general release?

    Also, while i'm seeing reference to SystemSettings.exe fixed from stopping. But i'd like to highlight another problem i reported, i.e. Outlook Index never finishing to complete and going in loops. In other words, Indexing is NOT completing and again restarting from zero files.

    Hope this release takes care of the above issue also!

    It's certainly past 2PM on 24th March, but i don't see any update till now. I'm based out of India, so not sure if the update is released here or not.

    Anyone got this update for Windows 11? If so, please provide feedback.

    @Gabriel: Please let me know when can i expect this update to be released to India users of Windows 11?
