  2. Trouble with search bar (won´t find data)

    Hi Jan,

    I Would suggest you follow the steps below and see if it helps:

    Step 1: On the Search bar type “cmd”. Right Click on the Command Prompt option and select Run as Administrator. (If prompted for a password, type the password and click Allow)

    Step 2: DISM TOOL

    • Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
      and click Enter.
    • Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
      and click Enter.
    • Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
      and click Enter.
    For more information about DISM click on the link below:

    Hope this helps. Please reply if you have further related issues.

    Regards,

    Search bar won't allow me to type anything. Tried some solutions I found online and nothing.

    Can't Type inside the Search Bar (i can only type 1 letter and it will freeze and close the search bar)

    Hello guys and search for a solution for this problem and its was the simple of things.

    I don´t know why it works but try it and tell if it works for you guys too.

    • Press Win + R (to open Run )
    • copy paste and press enter to run this program. "C:\Windows\system32\ctfmon.exe". it brings back the language bar and for me it allowed me to type in windows search, start menu and WINDOWS 10 apps again
    I think it is due to missing Language bar or some think like that.

    Best regards.
