Do not create default search folders when users start Outlook

By default, Outlook creates a set of search folders (in Mail, in the Navigation Pane) when users start Outlook for the first time: For Follow Up, Large Mail, and Unread Mail. By enabling this setting, you can prevent these default search folders from being created.

Supported on: At least Windows Vista
