Search Not Working In Microsoft Outlook For Mac

Microsoft Outlook Search not working is an issue that is common across all versions because all of them have the same base on how it functions, and that is the Outlook Search Index.

Please make sure you set it to a bright color (such as red, yellow or green) so that it won't mix with the background color of your Outlook messages pane. In addition, please make sure you have enabled Windows Search Service on Windows Server 2012. If not, you can follow these steps to do it: 1.
