    Search Of the Immersive Control Panel Not Working

    Can't search the setting panel (Metro). For example, as I enter "Windows Update" or just "Update" in the search box of the setting panel, no setting options coming out in the result list, no windows update appear in the drop down list. Almost any setting
    options in the setting panel can't be search for, but control panel settings works fine.
