    Redundant search results


    Has anyone else noticed how some of the search results just lead to the settings app opening with the name of the search result in its search bar, but nothing in the results of the app? To get an idea of what I'm talking about, search up "Show me tips about windows", "turn auto brightness on or off" or "turn on device discovery".

  2. win 10 photo duplicates

    Not sure what you mean by "4 different media"

    Drives? Folders?

    If all four locations are already in your Picture Library, searching the library for 'kindRedundant search results :picture' will give you a flat view of all pictures where duplicates , when the search results are sorted by name (use list or details view), will be listed
    together and redundant items can be deleted.

    You could also create a new library with just the locations desired if that would help narrow the results.

    Search the results of a search?

    Hello Joshua,

    We appreciate the information you have provided us. Since you mentioned that the indexing troubleshooter did not resolve the issue, what we suggest next is to run the
    System File Checker tool. This is a utility in Windows that allows you
    to scan for corruptions in your system files that may cause this issue.

    Let us know if you will need further assistance.

    I would think you're going to get similar results with any kind of search,, not only with Windows.
