So when migrated to Office365, this hidden folder is migrated along with the user’s email.
OUTLOOK 2013 AUTOCOMPLETE NOT WORKING PC
The great thing about this is that when setting up a new PC if the user opens the same mailbox then the list will be there already as soon as the mailbox is opened. Outlook 2010 and later store the autocomplete list in a hidden folder in the user’s mailbox. Luckily you just need to find the nk2 file, copy it to the new PC, and then import it into Outlook.
This is local to the PC, so if users login to a new PC, the cache won’t be there. Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 and earlier versions store the AutoComplete list in a nickname (.nk2) file on the disk.
Largely it depends on the Outlook client version. The answer, as with many things in IT, is ‘it depends’.
OUTLOOK 2013 AUTOCOMPLETE NOT WORKING MANUAL
In fact users just often don’t use contacts because it requires manual steps to save someone’s details, they just rely on the fact that once they have emailed a user, Outlook remembers the name and they just have to start typing it and Outlook completes the address for them. Many users rely on this list, and a common complaint when this goes missing is ‘my contacts have disappeared’. During a recent Office365 migration, one of the questions that arose was what would happen to Outlook Autocomplete entries (also known as the Nickname cache) when migrating users from on-premise Exchange, to Office365.
