Is there any way to show which folders contain flagged emails, similar to how you can see one contains unread emails?

Dear Carles Gilberto Silva,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to assist you.

Use Instant Search

Instant Search can be used to find flagged items within the selected folder or across all mail folders.

On the Home tab, in the Find group, click Filter Email, and then click Flagged.

There is no built-in way to show which folders contain flagged emails in Outlook. However, there are a few workarounds you can use:

Use the search bar

You can use the search bar in Outlook to quickly find all flagged emails, regardless of which folder they are in. To do this, simply type is:flagged into the search bar and press Enter.

Create a search folder

You can create a search folder that shows all flagged emails, regardless of which folder they are in. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click the File tab.
2. Click New.
3. Click Search Folder.
4. In the Choose a search folder dialog box, select Mail Flagged for Follow Up.
5. Click OK.

The new search folder will appear in the Navigation Pane. You can then click on the search folder to view all of your flagged emails.

Use an add-in

There are a number of Outlook add-ins that can show you which folders contain flagged emails. One such add-in is called Flagged Mail.

To install the Flagged Mail add-in, follow these steps:

1. Open Outlook.
2. Click the File tab.
3. Click Options.
4. Click Add-Ins.
5. Click the Go button next to Manage your add-ins.
6. In the COM Add-Ins dialog box, click the Add button.
7. Browse to the Flagged Mail add-in file and click Open.
8. Click OK to close the COM Add-Ins dialog box.

Once the Flagged Mail add-in is installed, it will add a new column to the Navigation Pane called Flagged Mail. This column will show you the number of flagged emails in each folder.

Thank you for your precious time. Have a nice day.

No worries thanks for the reply! I've already got an Quick Access shortcut for this which works well, but was just wondering if there was any way of visualising it in a similar way to which I described. Thanks anyway!
