    Start menu search funtion broken


    In the bottom left of the screen, I have enabled the little search button next to the windows icon. clicking this button does nothing. Typing while the start menu is open does nothing. Attempting to disable the button/combine it with the start menu button does nothing.

    :)

    Broken/Duplicate Item in Start Menu

    Okay, I ran both commands, and the broken Netflix start menu item was still there, so I restarted my computer and it was still there. I made sure the spacing was right and they seemed to have run properly, I just forgot to take a screenshot as proof before
    I closed the Command Prompt.
