Outlook – Search not showing recent results

emailmicrosoft-outlook-2013search

When I search for an email in outlook 2013, usually searching by person I received it from or by attachment, the most recent email the search will show me is from about two months back. It doesn't matter if I'm using a keyword or a person's name, the date on the "most recent" result is September even if I know I've emailed the same person or included the keyword in an email since then. From there the results progress backwards chronologically fine, but the results skip everything between now and September.

I did some googling around and most people seem to have problems getting outlook to show emails from over 12 months ago. That's solvable here but I'm having trouble finding anything about a search that regularly doesn't include recent months even if I know recent emails apply to the search. Any assistance on this is appreciated!

Have you checked your Outlook Indexing?

If it states that there is an index directory, try removing and re-adding your outlook indexing.
