Hello,
I have Outlook 2010 (office 64 bit) with windows 7 (64 bit). Recently, my search on Outlook no longer return the most recent e-mails. The first e-mails listed are at least two weeks old. I have disabled all the add-ins just to be sure that there was no issue there. But still have the problem. Any ideas?
Thanks,
do you have the option "display search results as i type" tick marked?

Click the Office 2010 program that you want to repair, then click Change.

I ran the repair process, then it took awhile to index everything, but it now works. Thanks for the feedback.
Good news.
Happy Holidays.:)
You can mark this thread solved.
You could also turn off and turn on the windows indexing system from add/remove programs > turn on/off windows features. Merry Christmas :)
