I recently downloaded the new Mac Ventura OS. Now my Outlook won't search email folders for the two weeks since I downloaded the OS. I deleted all the Office 365 files then downloaded a new batch. Problem persists. Unfortunately, I can't find advice specific to the Ventura OS.

I tried everything and these 2 simple commands helped and worked!
Thank you so much, I have no idea why finding these answers are so hard your the best!
Thank you a thousand times, Lefty Locus!! You Rock! I was frustrated beyond belief and even my IT Team could not figure how to fix. I went on a hunt for an answer and yours was the Magical Solution! I don't understand how these two tech giants don't partner better together! SMH
So glad it helped you too! Credit goes to the original poster of the working solution, suddetuned.
Oh yes, I realize that now. Shout-out to @suddetuned!!
I'm always afraid to upgrade my mac to newest OS becasue of Outlook for Mac search functionality ceasing to work. I assume running these terminal commands fix search going forward for new emails as well and not just for what already appears in your Outlook, correct?
