    6000006 Registry key to disable Windows Desktop Search Service for Outlook as per Microsoft guidance

    You can work around the issue by disabling Windows Desktop Search which will cause Outlook to use it’s built-in search. The built-in search will display the following to indicate it is not using the Windows Search service:

    “Search performance will be impacted because a group policy has turned off the Windows Search service.”
