    Can't use search


    I have an incredibly annoying bug right now where I can't use the search functionality of Windows 10. When I press the start menu, and start typing, nothing happens. When I enable the search bar on the taskbar, I can't type anything in to it.
    Thank you for any help.

    Update: If I create a new account, the search works, but still doesn't work on my primary account.

    :)
