Search anomaly in Windows 10
One of the very few things I don't like about W10 from a usability perspective:
This doesn't seem right but is consistent across all five W10 computers in my household. A proven method to fix this annoyance would be appreocated if it exists. TVM, XV |

There are a couple of ideas here. |
I use Effective File Search - works every time.............

Thank you, noughtsnones, a nice try to help but I have unfortunately already spent multiple hours troubleshooting including to try the options listed at that link.
HH - I would just like W10 search to work properly. :) |
For Info
Desktop PC with updated W10
I have the Cortana search box visible on the task bar. Typing part or all of the file name seems to work fine, so it’s not a problem common to all installations. Maybe a problem due to another item of software installed on all 5 computers? An unrelated issue following last week’s W10 upgrade The google search page crashes in Chrome. Internet Explorer and Edge. Fixed it by going to the ‘Advanced Settings’ in Edge - de-select and re-select ‘Get Cortana to assist me in Microsoft Edge’. :confused: |

Try UltraSearch, does the job thoroughly and easily.

Thanks, flywatcher but as written in reply to Heathrow Harry I want to get W10 search to work properly. I already have a search tool and inference from what I have found on the web is that it is not a crock of brown smelly stuff and should ordinarily be working correctly - So solution not workaround. :ok:
