Windows 10: “Search Windows” Bar Results Un-Clickable Windows 10

When I use the "Search Windows" bar on the taskbar I cannot click on most of the suggested results. I used "restore" as an example in the attached picture. Options for "restore" come up as shown but the red arrowed results are un-clickable while the blue arrow is. If I just put in "re" instead of "restore" then Remote Desktop comes up as a suggested result and I am able to click on it. I have disabled Cortana and shut off web results on all PC's. Other than that I have not tweaked any of the workstations.... One more thing that I failed to mention was that I ran sfc /verifyonly on all my Windows 10 machines and it never resulted in any integrity violations. Thanks in advance for any and all help with this issue!!

Search results not clickable

Hi,

had Microsoft computer guys take over my computer. There is no fix. I have an old MSN account. I had to create another sign in with admin and a new Hotmail account. That worked but the old Hotmail account (the one that i wanted) cant use Cortana. And they
know this is an issue.

If you download loads of programs then the other account does not always allow you to use it, so problems developing. Accountants, and SAGE users will hate this problem.

I also had to fix the problems caused by the chap taking over my computer because the above help is fraught with dangers and errors.

 

I'm having a very similar issue.

However, for me, cog wheel icon results typically work. But I don't get the "reset this PC" and "Go back to an earlier build" options that you do.

So, in this example, I can select "settings" and "windows mobility center", while nothing else works:

 

After having this problem, I installed Stardock's Start10, and now use its "search programs and files" using the modern theme to work around this problem. Regardless, the problem is annoying, and I hope someone responds with a real solution.

 

Thanks for the workaround! I'll give it a shot, it is really annoying because on some workstations it works fine and on others some parts work while others do not! Really no rhyme or reason to what does work and what doesn't. For a while I was thinking that I was the only one having this issue....

 

Well, for me, app results work. So, for example, "control panel" will work, but if the search result brings up a non-app, it won't work.
