    Search showing old, deleted apps and not showing newly installed apps


    The search shows old and uninstalled apps but not the newly installed apps, they are present in the start menu but don't come in search. I manually added the start menu folder AGAIN to the Windows indexing location and rebuilt the index but it still doesn't work. Running search and index troubleshooter says "Windows search is not working" and when I try the repair as an administrator, nothing happens.
    I'm using Windows 10 Pro 2004 Build 19041.685

    :)

    NEWLY added apps are not showing on Start App list

    Hi Tamal,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    1. Is Cortana able to search the apps installed?

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if that helps.

    • Type Start Settings in Search and hit
      Enter.
    • Turn on Show recently added apps in jump list of Start of Taskbar.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

    Thanks

    Search showing old, deleted apps and not showing newly installed apps

    Some installed apps don't show in search for Win10

    Some programs in AppData\Roaming do not show up in the search menu. For example, Discord, is in Roaming, but does not show up when I search for it. Many apps that I have installed are also not in Roaming.

    Same goes for \Start Menu. Lots of apps listed, some show up in search, some do not.

    All applications were installed on my main account. The second account was not created until very recently. I'll look through the threads you listed now.
