outlook 2010 search broken

[Gregg D.]

My search no longer retrieves anything in outlook 2010. It doesn't matter if
I am searching email or contacts. Any ideas?

The only way I can find a contact is to use filter and narrow it down.

did you try rebuilding the index?

I have tried rebuilding the index. Still no luck. I also noticed
that every time I restarted outlook 2010 the add-in for the email
indexer (mssphtb.dll) was disabled. I finally removed it figuring I
could just reinstall it but I don't see a choice to do that anywhere.
This is really annoying.

I'd take a searchtool for Outlook. The standart search in Outlook is no
really good relating search options and accuracy.

You could try the searchtool 'Lookeen' (http://www.lookeen.net).
They have a 14-Day Trialversion and I bet you'll love it :

For the record I am just running in in safe mode and it works great.
I tried both xobni & looken, xobni works well but lookeen didn't work
at all. There are a lot of things I like about xobni but also a lot I
don't. Either way the biggest problem I have is when I am looking for
a contact.

I don´t know what you have for problems with Lookeen, because I work with Lookeen and it works perfect! With everything, the indexing is fast, the search too and the results are always the right one!

Your search add-in is probably disabled.
Go to File - Outlook Options - Add-Ins.

At the bottom you will see Manage:COM additns and hit go. You should re-enable it there.

I too have this problem (and doing a google it seems other do too) wit
Windows Search add-in being disabled in Outlook ... and it seems to b
required to detect new items or changes that are required to be inde
after the main big index is created (or recreated).

Any ideas how to get a response from Microsoft or a fix?

And please don't sugest that I use something else

Outlook 2010 Running Professional Vista 64bit - Solution Found!

My search is broke, but found the fix! I tried everything on all the googled links too.

I have Vista 64 bit. I was running Outlook 2010 Beta and then recently upgraded to full version Outlook 2010 and my search stopped working as many others. I tried many things, but what finally fixed the problem was I went into File,Options,Search,Advanced --> Restore Defaults. Rebooted and ran reindex and still didn't work, but...

Then I decide to run the Office Setup file again and run "Repair" Option, and then it started working again.

So definitely try running "Repair" from office setup too..

My search no longer retrieves anything in outlook 2010. It does not matter if
I am searching email or contacts. Any ideas?

The only way I can find a contact is to use filter and narrow it down.
