    Bizarre search bug since 1909 update


    I realise 1909 has a few search issues but I've not seen anyone else have this exact bug so I'm not really expecting help (though it'd be really appreciated), but I'm more sharing this in case others DO have the issue and this will let them know they're not alone..

    If I use an explorer window's right-hand search within a folder for say *.mp3 and then after my results I back out afterwards, once the folder isn't at the forefront (i.e. I minimise it, alt-tab, or use the bottom right show desktop button), the *.mp3 search in that explorer window will repeat all by itself. It does this even if I back out the folder a few times or if I navigate entirely away from that folder i.e. it can sometimes then trigger an entire drive scan for mp3 files. Basically it means the explorer window is just always going to trigger a search once it's not at the forefront, no matter what I do with it.

    I realise it's not system-breaking as I can close that window after searching, but this bug is really annoying me and I know it's not normal behaviour because it hasn't done this to me until this update. I'm not quite sure what to do about it but I'd appreciate recommendations.

    To check them off - I've ran the search troubleshooter which found nothing, sfc /scannow and DISM didn't find any issues, I've disabled "Turn off display of recent search entries in the File Explorer search box" via gpedit.msc and I've even ran MS's Reset Windows Search Box PowerShell script but to no avail.

    Cheers.

  2. Windows 10 1909 Causes Secondary Hard Drive to not be Recognized

    Installing the Windows 10 1909 Update causes my secondary hard drive to not be recognized.

    Steps to confirm issue:

    • Secondary drive not visible in Windows Explorer
    • Secondary drive not visible in device manager
    • Secondary drive not visible in disk manager

    Steps to replicate issue:

    • Installing 1909 update

    Steps to resolve issue:

    • Uninstall 1909 update

    Since updates can only be delayed for so long, an actual fix would be appreciated.

    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
    I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
    Step 1:
    Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

    1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:

    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.

    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
