    'search people' now asks me to 'press enter'

    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?

    'search people' now asks me to 'press enter'

    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)

    'search people' now asks me to 'press enter'

    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?

    manual rule sends mail to wrong folder

    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.
