Windows 10: regedit search broken again 14393.105

Just noticed regedit search is broken again like it was before. If you search for something that is not found it hangs.
I tried regseeker to search and it also hung at 97%.

:)

 

Can't run msc or regedit from start menu search (cortana)

Well...

This time I didn't touch either user files or Windows search, and running msc/regedit from start menu search is broken again.

The cause is elsewhere.

Still digging...

 

Disconnecting the internet breaks start menu search?

This is not helpful at all, the search feature is broken because it doesn't work without the internet. One cannot type "command" and expect "Command Prompt" or "regedit" to get regedit to open. There should NEVER be a need to connect to the internet
to find things on the local computer. All workarounds DO NOT FIX THE ISSUE, they are hacks for Microsoft's breaking of the product, it has worked in all pre-cloud versions of Windows.

 

Not here Ztruker. Finished OK. Just quick question: where do you see %

Edit: never mind the % question - it's from regseeker *Smile
And I'm on Insider, latest

Edit2: Checked on AU .105 and it works OK too.

 

Yup, just tried it on IP 14915 and it works okay there. Anniversary + updates 14393.105 does not work, goes non responsive and you can't even Cancel it. Have to kill it via Task Manager.

 

Working fine here on 14393.105. So many random bugs cropping up on Windows 10 since the Anniversary update though.
It looks like a case of rushing it out to meet the date *Sad

 

I'll try the DISM/SFC stuff and see what happens.

 

Nope, no difference, still hangs.

 

regedit search is working fine for me with 14393.105. Tried with search terms that weren't found and also that were found (using F3 to continue searching till the end), and they both worked as expected.

 

Hmmmm, could I have a corrupted registry? When I get time, I'll try it in a Virtual Machine.

Edit: I tried it again and let it run, took almost 7 minutes then it finally completed with not found.
