    my taskbar search is working sporadically

    My taskbar search bar is working some of the time. For example, if I type in "TaskMgr", it will list taskmgr, and when I click on it, it opens my Task Manager, as expected.

    But if I type in a file name or an app, like WinMerge, it will list them properly in the Search list, but if I click on them, either nothing happens or it takes me to the root window of File Explorer, instead of to the file or the app.

    I ran through all the steps on this page, to no avail: How to fix search problems in Windows 10

    Any ideas?
     
  3. Taskbar search

    Hi,

    To assist you better, kindly send us a screenshot and provide more details by answering the following questions:

    • When you say "taskbar search function", do you mean the Start menu search field?
    • Are you getting any error messages upon accessing the taskbar search?
    Meanwhile, to help resolve your concern, we suggest that you run the System file checker and DISM tool to fix issues with corrupted system files that may be causing the issue. To do this, follow these steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X on your keyboard.
    • Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type or copy these commands followed by hitting Enter:

      sfc /scannow


      dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    Do let us know how it goes.

    Which is why I suggested he try there instead. TPU is too limited of a user base to search here alone for anything gaming related.
