    Windows 10 Search box

    Which instructions are you suggesting I missed? There is no search icon. Right clicking the taskbar shows no search option. The "small characters" or icons trick did nothing. The regedit thing:
    Follow these steps to turn on the hidden search box:

    • Open regedit
    • Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search
    • Inside the search key, create the new DWORD value named EnableSearchBox and set it to 1
    • Restart your computer or simply Explorer Shell
    Did not give me a search option that I can find.

    So in at least MY version of windows 10 there is no search box I can find that will allow me to search my own computer to find possible misplaced files.

    So what are the instructions?

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  4. Windows 10 2004 version Bugged Search box not opening

    The "Open Diagnostic Data Viewer" is broken in Windows 10 (64) Version 2004

    Hi,

    Since the issue is still not solved so as to the next step I would suggest you roll back the Windows 10 2004 update and try updating it again following the below instructions.

    To Rollback windows 2004 update follow the below instructions:

    Open Settings by typing in the search box next to windows icon

    Click on Update & Security.

    Click on Recovery.

    Under “Go back to the previous version of Windows 10,” click the Get started button.

    Select a reason why you’re uninstalling version 2004.

    Click the Next button.

    Click the No, thanks button.

    Click the Next button.

    Click the Next button again.

    Click the Go back to the earlier build button.

    Once you complete the steps, the device will remove the latest feature update, and it’ll revert to the previous version

    Next

    To Install the Latest Windows Feature Pack 2004 update manually steps:

    Step: 1

    Open the link below

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    Step 2:

    Click Update which will download the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant

    Step 3:

    Run the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant & then click Update now.

    Step 4: It will start downloading the update and also shows the percentage of download.
