    I recently reset Windows 10 while keeping my files.Since the reset, I noticed the search function does not find any installed applications, despite those same apps appearing in the "All apps" list of the Start menu. However, the search seems to find shortcuts/links/whatever to the applications that were already uninstalled after resetting Windows.I tried fixing the search indexation by following the most common procedures, but any of them seems to work:- Updated Windows 10.- The search function does not work even after resetting the computer.- Running the 'Search and Indexing' troubleshooting

  2. Reset Button Not Working

    Well just to be 100% sure I rechecked the connections and its properly connected. Did some testing and found out that it will only reset if I press it twice like: press it once wait like 10 seconds and press again. That way system will reset and boot.
    Also tried to reset right after system boots (before windows loads) and it resets with a single press.
    After windows loads gotta press it twice like I explained.
    Oh and by the way, my motherboard as 2 onboard switches (power and reset) and it does exactly the same if I use the onboard switch.

    How to reset whole netsh? (Windows 7)

    Was wondering has the commands changed somehow since on Windows XP and on Windows Vista 'NETSH INT RESET ALL' cleaned entire netsh up from top to bottom.

    Now on Windows 7 this same command says no go and only way I can see it is by building .cmd/.bat which does something like:

    Code: netsh winsock reset all netsh int 6to4 reset all netsh int ipv4 reset all netsh int ipv6 reset all netsh int httpstunnel reset all netsh int isatap reset all netsh int portproxy reset all netsh int tcp reset all netsh int teredo reset all[/quote] now the king of the hill of bugs is this doesn't actually do even it's job even after reboot. values setup to are not reset to defaults. (I know I could add more entire list of entries there is, but looking for clean delete/wipe settings & default everything not to dump entire list of resets.)

    So, anyone got a plan B?
