Windows 10: Restore Windows 10 search result behaviour

Hi to everyone,

I'm here to ask help to restore a behaviour of the search results in Windows 10.

Creating a new user on Windows 10 I realized that the search results have different graphics and layout compared to my current user.


As you can see in the attachment below, when searching for "Control Panel", this is the result for my current user.



But when I look for the same thing in the newly created user it is seen differently. There's an entire new section.




Is there any menu to set these settings?


Thank you very much for your help.

:)
