    Miss the New Search Options in Windows 10 Build 1809.


    Hey Guys,


    I had a post in the Feedback Hub that suggested the Search Box have an option to search for Folders, so I was thrilled for about a month when Microsoft changed the Search option to include Folders, Videos, and Music icons with a simple click!


    However, seemingly, with last Tuesday's patch update for 1809, (maybe earlier.) the search has gone back to the way it was before those folders were added. You can still DO folder searches, but they, along with Music and Videos don't show up anymore. We are back to the following:


    Present are:

    • Apps
    • Settings
    • Documents
    • Photos
    • Web


    Gone are:

    • Music
    • Folders
    • Videos


    The separate "Folders" search is the one that I miss the most!


    Jack

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
