When is the Unified search function coming back?
As quoted in forums, the unified search function (using start button to search for outlook messages and files) has been removed. When are you going to reinstate this function?

Hi,

Whether you can search for Outlook items from Start depend on the version of Outlook and Windows you are using. If you are using Outlook 2013 or Windows 8/Windows 8.1, I'm afraid the searching from Start feature is dropped. See:

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178954%28v=office.15%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

"In Office 2013, Outlook items do not display in Windows Shell searches (for example, searches from the Start Menu or by using Win+F). Perform Office searches within Office 2013."

I'll collect and report your question through internal way. Although revisions cannot be made to the application, your feedback is appreciated. It will help improve later versions of these products.

Thanks,
