Windows 10: How can you Remove Indexing in Windows 10

Could someone explain how to remove windows indexing.
And I mean by Modifying the ISO so that the Following Item is Un-Ticked;---
In My Computer, Select The Properties of your HDD.
Now Under General, to have The Tick Removed from ( allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties ).
Because it can take some time to Complete if you Untick it Manually.
So if the ISO,Image or Registry is Modified in such a way that Windows Indexing is Disabled .
As far as I know that in Services, by disabling Windows Search , that Disables Indexing.
But The Tick is still there in Drive Properties

:)

 

windows 10 indexing and removing web results revisited

Hi,

Win 10 Pro version 1607

There alot of posts on these topics, and at least some are outdated. Hoping for some new insight that I couldn't find amongst all the older posts.

• Cortana web search suggestions interfere substantially in the usability of Windows 10 search functionality for me. How do I remove them entirely from the list of suggested results? There no longer seems to be a setting in Cortana to disable this.
• Indexing has been "completed" on this new Windows 10 Pro machine. I have a 1TB data drive with 500GB of documents, images, videos, etc. The data drive is included in the indexed locations. Identically named files in one folder on the drive show up in
  search results, while those in another folder do not show up. Some word documents show up, others don't. Folder names also do not show up in the search results. The contents of this data drive were previously on a data drive in a Win7 machine, where the
  indexing and search results were instant, comprehensive, and accurate: the results list included any match or partial match of a file name, folder name, or (for certain file types) document content. How do I achieve a comparable level of performance in Windows
  10?

Things I have tried:

• Running the troubleshooter as an administrator: no suggestions.
• Rebuilding the index. I am unclear whether I "did this as an administrator". I did it while logged in as an administrator, but I cannot right click and run the Indexing Options "as an administrator".
• I have verified that text document types (word docs, txt, etc.) have both properties and contents indexed.

Thanks

Russell
