Windows 10: I can’t use registry editor and I can’t use the search bar

Im not able to use registry editor nor the search bar on the home screen on windows 10. A couple months ago I disabled registry editor but now i need to use it again but it wont let me open it and says “registry editing has been disabled by your administrator.” I’ve tried the group policy editor to enable registry and i’ve tried to redownload windows 10 to fix registry which then didn’t fix registry but then also didn’t allow me to use the search bar and to fix the search bar i tried indexing it and it didn’t work so then I just decided to redownload windows 10 but nothing fixed so now i don’t

Trouble with search bar (won´t find data)

Hi Jan,

I Would suggest you follow the steps below and see if it helps:

Step 1: On the Search bar type “cmd”. Right Click on the Command Prompt option and select Run as Administrator. (If prompted for a password, type the password and click Allow)

Step 2: DISM TOOL

• Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
  and click Enter.
• Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
  and click Enter.
• Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
  and click Enter.
