Outlook 2010 Search Function Stops

Sometimes a users search function in Outlook 2010 stops working. When they try and search for something it comes up with "No Matched Found" This can occur if the PST file has some corruption. You can either run the PST file through SCANPST.EXE (search for this, it comes with office) or re-build the indexing.

1. Click the windows icon and in the "search program and files" bar type Indexing Options.
2. Click on "Indexing Options" in the results.
3. Click on "Microsoft Outlook" and click on "Advanced"
4. Then click "Rebuild" and then "OK"

This will start the rebuild process. Depending on the mailbox, this can take a number of days. Keep testing the function and you should start seeing up pick up mail from certain folders.
