    All ive ever used is hotmail however there was big changes last year to outlook and since then, when i type in the search option, it wont find anhy of my un-deleted emails. I have a few thousand emails and before, if i need to find one, id just search the email address or close to it and the search bar found it. Now i type in the search bar what im looking and nothing appears.

    Anyone know what i need to do for this search to find my emails?

    Are you pressing enter?

    The default option is all folders, so shouldn't be an issue.


    If you are pressing 'enter' to search, try another browser/ or try using the windows 10 app?

    Are you accessing your e-mails through a web browser or an Outlook app or some other mail app?

    If you're using a mail app like Outlook you'll have to set it to sync your entire e-mail history because it'll only search through what's stored locally.

    Are you looking in the correct folder (Inbox will search all folders)

    Are you pressing the search button?
