3 outlook features that you would want to try

Outlook is full of several exciting and fun features. We just need to dig a little to explore those functions and use them to make a most out of it.  

1. Accentuate your searched keywords with the color of your preference


When we search for something in the outlook, it shows so many results with the searched keywords. Do you know? we can create it more visual and underlined for us. That would enable us to pinpoint the desired results quickly. Here are the few steps you need to follow to make these changes.

  • Go to the File option from the Menu bar and select Options 

  • Choose Search from the left side menu. On the right-hand side, you will notice many options. Under the Highlight search terms in the results, you can change the highlight color as per your choice. Click OK once done.

2. Updating Official working hours 


This feature is excellent for working professionals. In Outlook, you can add your operating hours as per your office schedule to make everyone conscious about the timings they should reach out to you, or your coworkers and customers would anticipate your response from you so you don’t get bothered or troubled during your off-hours. Just follow these steps to add your office hours in the outlook.

  • Go to the File option from the Menu bar and select Calendar. From the right-hand options under Work time, you can pick a start and end time, workings days, the first day of the week as well as the first week of the year.


3. Adjust the alignment for Reading Pane


Many individuals need to have a correct alignment for the email reading pane which is accommodating for them to have more concentrated view, and they feel more comfortable to preview the email.


And you can select your preferred alignment position from there


Thank you.
