    Restore magnifying glass icon to taskbar

    To restore the search icon to the taskbar > right click on the taskbar > click on "Search" > check "Show search icon"

    Now the search icon should show on your taskbar.

  3. Can't find search on Windows 10

    Right Click empty area of taskbar> Search/Cortana> Show search box/ Show icon.

    This should make a search bar/icon on your taskbar to search files, settings etc.
