Windows 10: Search function in Win10

Hi,

I noticed that, when performing a search via the Windows search function and then clicking on "see more results", it opens an explorer window with the search results. So far, so good. The issue is, when I do the next search the same way and then clicking again on "see more results" it opens the explorer window with the results of the previous search, so I need to close the explorer window every time after a search in order to get the correct results from a new search. Is this behaviour intentional or is that bug?

Apart from that, I frequently have the issue that I can't type in the search field in the upper right corner in Explorer to perform a search in the search results. It just won't let me type.

The search function - Win10

This is the slowest, most painfull way to find files I can imagine.

Is it possible to cache the elements on a network drive, or any other way to make this search more efficient? It takes literally minutes to do a few searches, wich is a complete waste of time.

And why in the world would it start the search over again, just because I choose to rearrange the list - by size, date etc?

Will you ever make this function not a rageinducing experience?

Sincerely,

-Ole
