Search no longer works in Outlook.

For some reason or another, my program got fixed over the weekend.

It seemed to be with the "Offline" searching function provided by an .OST offline data file being either corrupted or completely removed.

This was fixed, by nothing I did. It had to have been on Microsoft Outlook email server side of things.

***If your program is still not searching, you can log onto the web and search it that way, or another device. Or you can see the fix above where you can search using the Outlook application ... with a few little changes to how you search.

The Search function in Outlook is doing the same for me "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later." in both the new and old versions on Window 10. It works fine from the Outlook app on my android phone. If this many people are having the same symptoms, it's obviously a bug in the Outlook desktop app.

Exactly the same with me. Updated, rebooted and repaired. As for the password issue with Hotmail account and mapi settings, just as bad.

First of all, there is no "Update and Security" button in settings. There is an "Windows Update" button and there is Privacy and Security. No update and security. So there is no troubleshoot to find, search index and so on. So it would appear none of your suggestions applies to my situation. I have rebooted Outlook and Windows and "repaired" 365 without effect.

Windows tells me I am up to date. I am running Windows 11, version 23H2 and MS 365 Outlook. I get the same message over and over:

Spot on.
