  1. Search field in bottom taskbar


    Hi there


    I have made a large update of Windows 10 (which I couldn´t chose myself) and the first thing i find, to my great irritation, is a big white ugly search field to the left of the task bar.


    How do I remove that?


    BR,

  2. Taskbar search

    Hi,

    To assist you better, kindly send us a screenshot and provide more details by answering the following questions:

    • When you say "taskbar search function", do you mean the Start menu search field?
    • Are you getting any error messages upon accessing the taskbar search?
    Meanwhile, to help resolve your concern, we suggest that you run the System file checker and DISM tool to fix issues with corrupted system files that may be causing the issue. To do this, follow these steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X on your keyboard.
    • Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type or copy these commands followed by hitting Enter:

      sfc /scannow


      dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    Do let us know how it goes.

    Taskbar search

    Did not do anything to help. The search in File Explorer works fine. The first and last screen shot shows a search leading to no results but the file explorer finds them just fine. The last one shows my indexing options.

    Thank you

    PS: can't get the screenshots to upload....

  4. Search field in bottom taskbar

    search field

    Hi Larry,

    You can always search for your files with the use of Cortana search box.

    If its not visible on your desktop, refer to the steps below to make it available again.

    1. Right-click on your taskbar and choose Cortana.

    2. Select Show search box.

    If you are referring to a search box that's designed to look for Word files only, we suggest you submit this as your entry at
    Microsoft Connect is Retired - Collaborate as this matter is already advisable to be listed on our Feedback forum.

    Rest assured that our Engineering team will take the necessary action to improve Windows features as we always value our customer's needs.

    Thank you.
