where is reg entry for setting "when possible, display results as the query is typed." ? for the 'search people'/'find a contact'. I notice that find while typing works in the address book window.

I uninstalled Outlook today, reinstalled. Issue with asking for 'enter' in Search People continues. Some office wide setting?

Not 365. Outlook.com which is , i guess, a MS Exchange server. I use companionlink to sync contacts between outlook and iphone. that happens maybe biweekly. Calendar entries happen too often to use an app. they need to show up automatically on iphone and 2 other computers.

another nail in the outlook coffin. I am looking for another Calendar app that will communicate with Exchange. Or maybe figure out how to completely change email and calendar operation, and get away from needing Exchange to connect calendar with Iphone.

I have been having outlook/exchange asking for password when outlook starts. I can enter password and it asks again a few minutes later. or it may be a day between asking. This has been going on for several weeks. This means that connection with Exchange calendar is completely unreliable. I...

Diane, have you had more thoughts about what to look at to rectify the issue?

I noticed today that 'search people' in Outlook, on my laptop, works normally. No need to press enter. KB5002529 is installed on both, so this seems to discount the update causing the problem. any ideas?

i am seeing an Outlook 'security' update KB5002529 installed on 12/29/31. What do say about uninstalling it? see if that corrects the problem?

if 'display results as query is typed" is turned off, even by an errant update, might that indicate a setting that controls it, aside from the setting in options? perhaps a reg entry? i've looked but don't see such a setting. (which should in no way be taken as definitive)

build #(16.0.5426.1000) MSO (16.0.5422.1000) "display results as query is typed" was disabled and then enabled. no change. it worked until a few weeks ago. maybe an update broke it?

OL16, local install, part of Office16. Search People box, installed in OL task bar, is now asking me to "press enter' to initiate search. Until about 3 weeks ago (windows update?) it searched while typing. I have tried rebuilding the index (yes, outlook is checked as an index location), and...

good luck reproducing it. I sync my desktop with laptop, for pst, and can't reproduce it on laptop. the hold folder that the quickstep refers to is an imap folder. the quikstep on laptop works ok going to the same imap hold folder. seems like it has to be something on the desktop is...

i realize that the 'hold 1' statement is unclear. after changing folder name and quick step name pointed to 'hold 1' , emails did get deposited to 'hold 1'. when i changed name back to 'hold', the problem resumed. the quick step for moving email to 'hold' on my laptop works ok.
