search box missing in task bar

I lose search bar and i try everything, and the best solution for me was install the tool Classic Shell 4.3.1, from www.fosshub.com/Classic-Shell.html. Recomend

 

Microsoft Edge icon has gone invisible in Taskbar in Windows 10 v 1709

I used a third party app.

I installed Classic Shell 4.3.1 then pinned Edge to classic start menu. Once it was pinned to classic start, then right clicking Edge in the start menu gave options to:

- unpin from start

- unpin from classic start menu

- unpin from taskbar

I chose all three

goodnight and goodbye Edge ... thanks for coming out to play but it's still a no go for this round ... better luck next time in version 17-whatever.

 

Hey Josey,

For some reason Auto Update is not seeing 4.3.1 yet. I had to manually update. Also the white text in your post is very hard to see.

 

The original text was grey. Grey on black does not work. It is the same text i always use. Is that better??

 

FYI for anyone who uses it. @Ivo has released an update for Classic Shell > 4.3.1

Hmm, that's a new one- is that exclusively for the Creator's build? I'm running the AU, and get
The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation

I just installed a couple of minor programs...

 

Not that I'm aware of. It's been out for eons, Ivo just updated a lot of stuff to make it fully CU compatible, but still works on all previous OS's. Unblock it? I don't know. Never had any issues with it.

 

I use it in The AU.

 

Well, v4.3.0 would install ok- just not this latest one.

 

Run it as Admin. It should install.

 

Tried that, thanks, also UAC off. No such issues with 4.3.0.

 

Try the old trick (no guarantee), rename the installer with "MY_" in front of it. Used to do that when MS had "issues" with it.

 

4.3.1 won't install. I get an error message. But 4.3.0 works okay. Strange thing it's set to automatically check for updates, but when i check manually, it's says i have the latest update*Confused
