Since Other Suggestions entries don’t include the X, how do you delete them? The easiest way, if Outlook cooperates, is to type enough of the name so that it moves up to the Recent People section, where it can be deleted. If Outlook doesn’t cooperate, you’ll need to switch to Contacts and type all or part of the address into the Search Contacts field. On the Search ribbon, select All Contact Items (first button on the left of the Search ribbon). The autocomplete entries are stored in a hidden folder called 'recipient cache', which is included in the All Contacts Items search. Autocomplete cache entries will only contain an email address; if you click the three dots in the contact card, the View Profile command, which shows you which folder the contact is in, is missing from the bottom of the menu (after Call).
Select and delete the contact. While we’re on the topic of the autocomplete cache entries showing up in instant search, I’ll mention that the registry key breaks the new autocomplete dialog. It’s purpose is to limit the Search People results to actual contacts but with both Search People and autocomplete using the same control, it means the nickname cache is not included in autocomplete either. Wow- that's a lot of info. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how it helps. Outlook is giving me a lot of unuseful suggestions, people that I don't have in my contact list. And it's not bringing up people that I use a lot- in the current example, someone I use regularly doesn't even appear until I get past her first name.
When I type 'jenn' for jennifer, I get five people that were in emails I received (not sent to) very infrequently- maybe once, that are not in my contact list. In fact, there are five people in my contact list that have jenn, but they don't appear as a suggestion. This feature has become a shadow of its former self.
