If Outlook's AutoComplete feature isn't working, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue:

  1. Check AutoComplete Settings:

    • Go to File > Options > Mail.
    • Scroll down to the Send messages section.
    • Make sure the Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields checkbox is checked.

  2. Clear AutoComplete Cache:

    • Go to File > Options > Mail.
    • Scroll down to the Send messages section.
    • Click Empty Auto-Complete List to clear the cache. This can help if the cache is corrupted.

  3. Update Outlook:

    • Ensure Outlook is up to date. Go to File > Office Account > Update Options > Update Now.

  4. Repair Outlook Profile:

    • Go to Control Panel > Mail > Show Profiles.
    • Select your profile and click Properties > Email Accounts.
    • Click Repair and follow the prompts.

  5. Check for Add-Ins:

    • Go to File > Options > Add-Ins.
    • Check if any add-ins are causing the issue by disabling them one at a time.

  6. Rebuild AutoComplete List:

    • If clearing the list didn’t work, you can manually rebuild it. Type a few characters of an email address in the To field and wait for suggestions to appear. Select the correct address from the drop-down menu, and it should start populating the AutoComplete list again.

  7. Create a New Profile:

    • If none of the above steps work, consider creating a new Outlook profile. Go to Control Panel > Mail > Show Profiles > Add to create a new profile and set it up with your email account.
