    Search box not responding


    I just updated to the most recent version of win 10 and have already had this problem 3 times.

    The search box just stops working out of the blue. I can still open it but when I move the cursor over it it starts loading. The text line is blinking but it doesn't register anything from the keyboard. I can't even search from the start menu.

    :)

    William,

    I suggest you edit your original thread title to something like
    Search boxes & calculator do not respond to keyboard or OSK anymore
    to attract the attention of people who recognise those symptoms,
