    search bar not empty when i start on certain sites


    I am using Windows 10 (18363.720) This is a small problem on some sites. For example if I go to ebay to buy something. the search box is already filled in with my user name whereas it used to be blank. Now to do a search I have to delete what is in the box before I type. Is there a way to make the search box blank again before I start? This happens on Netflix also. When I go to expand the search bar my email address is already in the search bar which I do not want.

    :)

  4. search bar not empty when i start on certain sites

    Search Bar/Cortana

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your concern here in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 family.

    From the description, I understand that you are still receiving the pop up notifications, despite having disabled the search functionality in windows 10.

    Steps to disable the Search Bar

    • Right click on the task bar.
    • Select the "Search" option.
    • Select "Disable."
    However, if the above steps don't work out, perform the below suggested steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Open a CMD window started as Administrator.

    Repair corruption: Dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth.

    Run this command next: Sfc /scannow

    Now run these two commands:

    PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    Hope the above information was helpful.

    Thank You.
