Hi All,

Have any of you come across this issue.

"Search performance will be impacted because the Windows Search service is turned off in elevated mode."


I’ve been looking on forums to fix it with no luck. Outlook 2016.

What happens is that when the user performs a search, it cannot be further defined to the “From” field.

Below is what I’ve done so far:

1. Online repair

2. Enabled and disabled windows search

3. Enabled the option available on the service to “Allow service to interact with desktop”

4. Followed steps as per link I researched below.

5. Re-indexed Ms Outlook under the indexing options in control panel.

6. Windows repair.

Any additional help would be appreciated.
 
You may need to re-create your Outlook profile to solve this (at least according to information I've found online). That has worked for a few people where the "Allow service to interact with desktop" option failed.

There's a good tutorial on doing that here:

I'd backup all your data before performing this!

Hi everyone, I hope this helps. I tried all the fixes, nothing worked, the indexing was still greyed out. I eventually tried reinstalling the 64bit version instead of the 32bit and it WORKED. something to try. Steve C
