    How do you stop search in f. explorer started from taskbar search box?


    21H1 19043.1052 Hi, I've just tried a search for a document launched from the taskbar search box, choosing 'Search in File Explorer'. File explorer opens, and the dreaded green progress bar starts to creep across as expected. Now, I wish to cancel that search. But I find I can't. I've - clicked x in the search box. - clicked 'Close Search' in the ribbon. The green progress bar continues remorselessly... Yet if I start my search in file explorer I can stop the search. Can you confirm this - and offer a way out other than closing file explorer? Thanks!

    :)
