Windows 10: Search settings

How can I set Search from the taskbar to search local documents only? This should be EASY, but after much searching on the Internet I don't see a simple answer, yet it appears many users want to be able to do this.


Note: I don't care about Web search, online or cloud drives, Bing, Cortana, unicorns or other such search locations and "features." I just want to find the documents on my computer.


Note 2: I know I can type docs: in front of every search. But really? This shouldn't be necessary. There must be a way to make search local documents the default setting.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
