Windows 10: Windows 10 2004 Immersive Search

Has Microsoft removed Immersive Search from the latest version? I recently updated to version 2004 and the search feature is not working. None of the resources I found on the internet worked. Is there a way to enable it?

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

• I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.

• Then I tried to remove the Pictures folder with option one at Add or Remove Folders from This PC in Windows 10 | Windows 10 Tutorials. Even after rebooting, the Pictures folder remained.
• So I tried using option two. Same thing: reboot >> Pictures folder still there.

• Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.

That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.

 

immersive control panel stops working

Hi sharvilpandit,

Thank you for posting your concern on Microsoft Answer Community.

To get clarity of this issue and assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, kindly reply with the answers to the questions below.

1. Were there any changes made to the operating system recently?
2. What is the build version of Windows 10 you are using?
   

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

Method 1: Perform SFC Scan.

Sfc Scan will inspect all of the important Windows files on your computer, including Windows DLL files. If System File Checker finds an issue with any of these protected files, it will replace it.

1. Click on search box and type CMD.
2. Right click on command, launch Command Prompt as administrator in Windows 10.
3. Then type Sfc /scannow
4. System File Checker will now verify the integrity of every protected operating system file on your computer. It might take quite a while to finish.
   
5. Once the verification reaches 100%, restart the PC and check if that helps.

I suggest you to refer this article
Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files.

Method 2: Re-register the Immersive Control Panel on PowerShell command.

1. Click on search box and type in PowerShell.
2. Right-click on Windows PowerShell icon and select
   Run as Administrator.
3. Copy/ paste this command on PowerShell: PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage *immersivecontrolpanel*).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode
   -Register $manifest}"
4. Restart the PC, and check if that helps.

Kindly provide us the results so that we can assist you further.
