Windows 10: Remove file explorer search box from taskbar.

Hey guys, just cleaned up my keyboard like 10 minutes ago and forgot to unplug my keyboard because I am a very smart person. Long story short, I pressed all kinds of keys while cleaning.
Now I got the search bar that also exists in the file explorer on my taskbar and I do wish to remove it. Tried the taskbar settings but couldn't find anything to toggle it off.

File Explorer Search Not Working


I am trying to search in File Explorer (Windows Explorer, My Computer) and it will not find anything. I can copy text from a name in the list and paste it in the search box and it still finds nothing. I have looked at the suggestions that have been posted and nothing I find that is relative to this works. Anyone have any suggestions? I am running Win 10 Pro on an I3 coustom desktop computer.
