Indexing error in Outlook 2016

 This is the error I received when trying to search in outlook 2016 : “Something went wrong and your search couldn’t be completed”

simple fix for computers running windows 10 and outlook 2016

1.  CLOSE Outlook down completely
2.  Click Start Button
3.  Type “Index”
4.  Select “Indexing Options”
5.  Click Modify
6.  Check the box beside “Microsoft Outlook”
7.  Open Outlook and do a search.

(in my case to fix it I had to  adjust step #7 since outlok was already selected and I had to remove the check click ok then select modify again and check outlook again)

Gmail Backup

 It is great to be in the cloud Smile

If you ever decide to cleanup your gmail and permanently delete messages from your trash maybe you will be interested to make backup of your emails first.

The free solution which worked the best for me is from mailstore.com
It is windows only but it worked great.
After making full backup of my mailbox I was able to delete any number of messages and then individually or bulk restore them back without any problem.
(it will place them in a restored folder in you gmail and then you can move them back to your inbox)

Other possible solutions for gmail backup are listed here: http://techsplurge.com/3250/5-ways-backup-gmail/
