  1. search feature messed up in explorer in windows 10 completely. How do I fix it?


    This may seem similar to another thread, but it is not the same question. I don't know what it could be. At first i thought it was due to a messed up external hard drive. Now i found that it is also happening randomly in explorer. It does not always happen when using the hard drive.I searched other external drives recently, and searched the data drive when I copied things from the external drive recently, and nothing happened.Just a few minutes ago, when I searched that drive, then explorer shut down, and refreshed.I find that to be odd, as the other day, i searched multiple times on the data

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    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.
