I find myself often visiting the Mail control panel for people I'm helping who use Outlook.
However, it never, ever shows up in the start menu for anyones computer:
Is there some magic string I can type in to get that menu item? I've tried all the obvious ones:
- Mail (32-bit)
- Mail 32 Bit
But to no avail. Normally I just go the long way, but with Windows 8 and Metro I'm concerned I'm going to get very frustrated trying to talk users through it over the phone.
Have you installed the MS Outlook and configure the profile for the mails? Because I am seeing it in my start menu as well in control panel. – avirk – 2012-04-02T02:04:25.577
As I am seeing you have configure the Outlook but it does not showing the option there. But I can see very easily it in my start menu as well in control panel. May be its an operating system problem.. – avirk – 2012-04-02T02:13:49.933
@avirk - I have had this problem on every computer I've worked on for the last 2-3 years. The only thing I can think of is that these are all 64-bit editions; maybe yours is 32-bit? – Mark Henderson – 2012-04-02T02:24:47.837
Hmmm you are right about this mine is 32-bit. Then probably there should be a path to set for showing it in start menu. – avirk – 2012-04-02T02:39:16.017
Works perfectly fine for me. (Win 7 x64) There may be options available to rebuild your search index. – Daniel B – 2014-02-19T18:41:58.577
@DanielB - yours has a different label - it is labelled (Microsoft Outlook 2013). I don't have any Office 2013 machines to test it with, but maybe they've fixed this in later versions. I've had this mail problem on every computer I've ever had, so I don't think it's a search index problem. – Mark Henderson – 2014-02-19T21:16:10.000
