    Search Of the Immersive Control Panel Not Working

    Can't search the setting panel (Metro). For example, as I enter "Windows Update" or just "Update" in the search box of the setting panel, no setting options coming out in the result list, no windows update appear in the drop down list. Almost any setting
    options in the setting panel can't be search for, but control panel settings works fine.

    Windows 10 Search for Control Panel Results Not Clickable.

    Hi Steve,

    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with using search bar on Windows 10. I will certainly help you.



    This issue might occur if there is change in search bar settings.



    To assist you better, please provide us the information below:

    • When you say that "any search result that is Control Panel related", are you referring to accessing the settings inside Control Panel through search bar?

    I suggest you to turn off Cortana from the settings.

    1. Open Cortana.

    2. Then click on Notebook symbol.

    3. Click on Settings.

    4. Then turn off Cortana.

    5. Then check if you are able to search Control Panel properly in the search bar.

    6. After that again turn on Cortana.



    I suggest you to send the screenshot of the issue in the next post for better understanding of the problem.

    How to include a screenshot in your post:
