Make Outlook 2007/2010/2013 search ALL folders instead of

Search in Outlook 2007, 2010 and 2013 is awesome.
Depending on the way you work, this little tweak will save you a little time
every time you need to do a search for emails.
Outlook (by default) searches emails in the current
folder you are in. The Search results also come up with a link at the bottom to
“Try Searching all Mail Items”. I find myself ALWAYS clicking on the Search All
link as I rarely bother to move to the relevant folder first.
Here’s a quick setting changing that will force Outlook
to search all mail items by default.
In Outlook 2010/2013, click File-Options and then click
the Search tab to display Search Options.
Click All folders and then click OK
In Outlook 2007, click Tools-Options and then click the
Search Options button on the Preferences tab to display the Search Options box.
Click All folders and then click OK.
It’s a small tweak but it could save you a lot of clicks.
